The expansion adds an extra step to the game in order to exhibit precious artefacts in their Museums our Curators will now need to send their agents out into the world to bring them back first! Players will have to choose which Continents to send their archaeologists to carefully as funding expeditions doesn&8217;t come cheap However if you don&8217;t have any agents present you can&8217;t bring objects back from that Continent! Unless of course you can convince one of your competitor&8217;s staff to lend a hand&8230; So how does it work ? The expansion&8217;s board has spaces for each Continent on which you can place your agent meeples to symbolize expeditions that you are sending out Each player starts with one agent that they can place on any Continent they wish for free Once you have an agent on site you can bring objects back from that Continent as normal during the Exploration phase If you have no agent on a particular Continent but another player does you can pay them 1 Prestige point to use their staff to do the work for you If there are no agents present on that Continent then you can&8217;t bring anything back at all! You can also pay extra to send additional archaeologists to a given Continent If you do so you gain additional bonuses such as extra Prestige points when you draw a card Each additional agent you send out to the same Continent costs more than the last However if you are the first to develop a full network of 3 agents you gain a considerable bonus! The second player to do so also gets a (smaller) bonus Players 2-5 Playing time 30-60 mins Ages 12 ...

Away from prying eyes&8230; Museum is about the wonders of the archaeological world the light the colour the textures of these wonders of history put on display for all to see! What some don&8217;t realise though is that there was a dark underworld that shadowed it Welcome ladies & gentlemen to the Black Market where anything is obtainable&8230;if you can pay the price Black Market is the fourth expansion for Museum & adds a market system to the game where you may purchase Objects & Notoriety cards to complete your collections & harass your adversaries For those of you looking to put a more aggressive emphasis on the interaction between players in Museum this is the one for you! Objects The 30 object cards featured in the expansion are all from civilisations outside of the ones present in the base game You&8217;ll know them by their rather unique appearance (Images coming shortly) & the fact that they only have one attribute! For example there&8217;s the Viking Longship that will only sport a Navigation Icon or maybe the Terracotta army the famous guardians of emperor Qin Shi Huang which only counts as a Chinese card? These & many more are purchased exactly like any other object & can give your collections a much needed boost! Notoriety Cards Museum has always had a pleasant level of player interaction with each player concentrating on building up their Museum With these new cards though you can throw many a wrench in your opponent&8217;s plans! Purchased like an object card they follow exactly the same rules as a standard notoriety card except their effects are much more aggressive Steal objects create counterfeits & steal prestige right out from underneath your opponent&8217;s noses! The ends justifies the means! All these new cards will be available on a separate market board When cards first appear they&8217;ll cost more but as they stick around for longer their cost will go down So do you shell out right from the start or wait for a better price at the risk of having them stolen out from you? The Black Market expansion

Includes:: 60 new Contraband cards (objects & Notoriety cards) as well as new characters events & Notoriety cards Players 2-5 Playing time 30-60 mins Ages 12

The People have spoken What would a Museum be without the people that visit it? How would all these treasures shine if not through the eyes of all those that behold them? A Museum lives & dies by the will of the public In this expansion you & your friends can battle it out for public acclaim as well adding a 5th player to your games of Museum! In The People&8217;s Choice you&8217;ll be competing for a common objective that is drawn at the beginning of the game For example The &8220;BC” card awards players with the most BC dated cards in their museum The player with the most cards takes the People&8217;s Choice token & keeps it until another player amasses a bigger collection At the end of the game the player with the token earns bonus points!
