Product Information

The new adversary that comes in this expansion is a mighty one: The Kingdom of Scotland. In general this adversary does not penalize a particular spirit choice or play-style too much. Its strength comes mainly from the ability to generate repeated waves of assaults that can be a problem if you are unable to constantly contain them. There are two new scenarios, A Diversity of Spirits and Varied Terrains. Diversity of Spirits adds some limited communication elements for a thematic touch. Why should the air spirits and the water spirits speak the same language? This is not my favourite scenario to be honest but I can see how some people will enjoy the limited communication aspect. Varied Terrains which adds a unique effect to each terrain type. This is a pretty interesting scenario which I have only touched on in my plays but I had fun with it. Both of these scenarios, as with everything in this expansion, adds more replayabilty and more content for hardcore Spirit Island fans to dig into. Spirit Island: Feather and Flame expansion increases base game variability for both solo games and cooperative games by adding four new Spirits and one new Adversary. In addition, the spirits of this expansion are among the more complex in the game allowing players to bring the challenge to a whole new level.

Feather and Flame is a small expansion. This expansion is not required for any future expansions, but includes extra Spirits, an Adversary, a few Aspects, and a few Fear Cards for added replayability. This expansion has twice as many Spirits (4) as Branch and Claw, but keeps the complexity lower by not introducing any new rules systems. Overall, the expansion does not add any new mechanics but it expands the material available adding more challenges. In fact, the spirits of this expansion are among the more complex available to date. As Feather and Flame uses the same rules as Spirit Island the core box, I will focus on how you could use the new spirits, adversary and scenarios and integrate them into your games.
