About the game
The new Faerie Folk Expansion adds in fairies and berries to your Tavern Masters experience, with new Fairfolk in the Patron deck. Fairfolk sometimes pay you a wooden button instead of a gold, and each Fairfolk has an ability they will perform for a wooden button. They are also known for vanishing when the bill comes due. This new expansion comes with the Faerie Folk Rules Booklet, 21 Tavern cards, 48 Patron cards, 12 Dirty Deeds, 1 Port card, 3 Song cards, 30 wooden buttons, and 6 random Fairy d6 (used during Counting the Till with Fairfolk).

The listed playing time for Tavern Masters: Faerie Folk is 20–60 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Tavern Masters: Faerie Folk for ages 13 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
