The King's Will: Extension is an expansion for The King's Will released in 2017 for 2–4 players, 60 minutes per game, and ages 10 and up. It was designed by Hans-Peter Stoll.
The four extensions The New Buildings, The Fertile Land, The Fine Arts and The Bad Times can be played individually, all combined, or in any combination together with the basic game. The New Buildings contains four new buildings(two green, two orange ones) which improve actions permanently. The Fertile Land consists of six fertile land terrain tiles for easier access to resources. Each peasant on these terrain tiles can harvest or exploit both resources if the action tiles harvesting or exploiting are chosen. These terrain tiles do not have building sites. The Fine Arts add the four gemstone mines to the terrain tiles of the basic game and four new buildings to the other buildings. For these a player can get additional victory points according to the gemstones. The Bad Times consists of nine bad times tiles for experienced players. They offer new challenges as individual actions become temporarily worse.
The King's Will: Extension supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for The King's Will: Extension is 60 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists The King's Will: Extension for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
