Game length for 2/3/4 players is 5/4/4 Rounds. LEFT ACTION - Immediate Action when receiving an Influence Token. Discard the Token to exchange up to 2 Faction Tokens (that do not have a negative Prestige value) for equally colored Faction Cards from the Supply. RIGHT ACTION - At any time during your Turn, discard 1 Intrigue Token to take a Faction Token of your choice that is adjacent to one of your Courtiers. Re-stock this space. P2 - Red Scoring Card SCORING CARD: Court Attrition At the end of every Round, players receive Prestige for each of their remaining Faction Tokens: Each pair of blue and green tokens are discarded from the game. Each pair of red and yellow tokens are discarded from the game. Each pair of brown and gray tokens are discarded from the game. Each remaining Faction Token, except for purple tokens, scores 3 Prestige. Each purple token scores -2 Prestige. The purple token may never be discarded for other Actions. P3 - Green Scoring Card SCORING CARD: Disappearing Courtiers At the end of every Round, players score 7 Prestige for each of their Courtiers on this card. At any time during a player‘s Turn, they may discard 1 Influence Token to place a Courtier from their supply onto this Scoring Card. Whenever a player acquires an Intrigue Token, they may choose to immediately discard it to remove another player‘s Courtier from this card.
Tudor: Bonus Cards 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 Tudor: Bonus Cards is 90–120 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 Tudor: Bonus Cards for ages 12 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.
