Scythe: Game Board Extension Reviews

4.7 Rating 10 Reviews
Read Zatu Games Reviews

If you ever thought that the board that comes with Scythe was not big quite enough, The Scythe: Game Board Extension is exactly what you need! It allows players to increase the size of the original playing field to impress your fellow gamers for more enjoyment and greater ease of use.

On the reverse of the original board supplied with the base game you will have noticed that there is a much bigger version of the board already printed but it is missing part of the board and is incomplete. By placing the Scythe: Game Board Extension next to this side it will complete the entire board. The hexagon sizes have increased which allows you see much more of the incredibly detailed artwork! There are exactly the same amounts of board locations (including popularity, star and power boxes) present as it purely allows you to play on an up-scaled version of the original board. There are no other changes to the game play itself.

Aside from an increased footprint on the table, having a larger board allows easier visibility of location iconography, especially when there are many workers, resources and mechs in play. It all adds up to make the game look even more epic, if that was even possible!

The original board in Scythe is 624x818mm, which increases to 818x936mm when adding the Scythe: Game Board Extension.

A copy of Scythe is required to use this expansion.

The original board is big already but if you have the table space and have mire than 2 players, this extension is really worth getting. Note that it doesn't add anything more to the map. What it does do is make the original map 50% bigger which means the game doesn't look too crowded when many players are playing, especially when you have battle mechs, workers, resources, and encounter tokens on each hex.

When you play with more than 4 players than the board extension is really a must. It gives so much space and really nice for the game play when you are playing full house.
