Description

--- "Der Lustgarten" (Pleasure Garden), the 5th expansion, adds 10 tiles: 9 beige Pleasure Garden buildings (2 black-backed) and 1 yellow knowledge tile (4 VP per Pleasure Garden), with immediate white die actions on placement. Key mechanics include: - *Tile components* 10 six-sided tiles: 9 "Pleasure Garden" buildings (beige, 2x black backs) and 1 "knowledge" tile (yellow, awards 4 VP per "Pleasure Garden"). - *Setup procedure* Tiles shuffled into respective piles before game start. - *Placement effect* Adding "Pleasure Garden" to estate triggers immediate action matching white die value (worker tiles usable as usual). - *Limited availability* Exclusive to "Stadt Land Spielt" event print on September 14th, 2014, across Germany. Der Lustgarten (Pleasure Garden) serves as the 5th expansion, introducing 10 specialized six-sided tiles to enhance estate-building: nine beige "Pleasure Garden" buildings—two featuring black backs for distinction—and one yellow "knowledge" tile that grants 4 victory points for each "Pleasure Garden" incorporated into a player's estate. During setup, these tiles are shuffled separately into their designated piles, integrating seamlessly with existing game elements. A key interactive mechanic activates upon a player adding a "Pleasure Garden" tile to their estate, compelling an immediate action equivalent to the value shown on the white die, with standard worker tiles permitted for support as in the base game. This expansion originated as a limited-edition release tied exclusively to the nationwide "Stadt Land Spielt" event on September 14th, 2014, throughout Germany, emphasizing its rarity and event-specific context. ---
