About the game
Deal each player 1 Muse Card at the start of the game. Each player may look at this card, but must keep it secret until the end of the game. At the end of the game, each player reveals their Muse Card and adds up the total number matching features on their commission cards. The feature can be on any commission card, whether the symbols appear together or apart. The player with the highest total of Muse Features scores 3 renown. If there is a tie, tied players score 1 renown each. This mini expansion was packaged separately from the base game.
