Mille Fury – Masterpieces

Glass production with associated trade brought golden times to the medieval seaside town of Mille Fiore, and Reiner Knizia has brought the whole subject to the gaming table with Mille Fiori, the base game, with great success at Schmidt Spiele. The simple and competitive game principle and highly successful bonus system are simply fun and helped the core game get good reviews.

Masterpieces as possibilities

The first Mille Fury expansion, The Masterpieces, is now available. In addition to the new tactical and strategy elements, this also includes an additional game board that can be added to the existing base game or game board.

Not only will the existing sea route be expanded, but it will also enter the so-called masterpieces. Victory Points are then not only achieved by skillfully placing translucent diamonds, but also by collecting and displaying these artifacts to players to earn the coveted Victory Points.

New ways to influence the city

As with the cards in the base game, new playing cards, such as Dogat Cards, Dogaressa Cards or Council Tiles, also bring additional effects with which players can once again influence events in Lake City.

Mille Fury – great masterpieces but with untapped potential

The materials are of the usual quality, even high-end. The game instructions explain the new possibilities that the expansion brings with it in a very understandable way and with good examples.

It is important to note that the base game or base game is required to play this expansion. It is also a pity that the potential number of players has not been expanded; Only two to four players can enjoy Mile Fury at the same time.

With the expansion, the game ends as before when the stock of glass diamonds is used up or the cards run out. Thus, the actual playing time remains within the framework of the previous base game.

The extension serves well-known happiness mechanisms

The bottom line is that with Mille Fiori it’s fun to annoy other players and get important bonus points here and there. With this expansion, the quick start of the game is kept with the simple rules from the base game, and a well-thought-out bonus system also allows the well-known fun from the base game with the sweet feelings of happiness to come back again.

All those who have already enjoyed the base game can access Mille Fiori – The Masterpieces without hesitation. Anyone else still looking for a good family game should keep an eye on the base game and maybe also add antiques to their cart.
