The emperor has declared that pavilions shall be constructed among the lanterns floating on the lake for this yearâ°ÃÂês festival. Place pavilions to earn gifts from the emperor and redeem those gifts for powerful actions to make this the best harvest festival yet!
InÃÂ¥ÃÂLanterns: The Emperor's Gifts, an expansion to Christopher Chung's award-winningÃÂ¥ÃÂLanterns: The Harvest Festival, players start with a small supply of pavilions. When you place a tile, you may choose to build a pavilion on that tile. When you make a color match on a pavilion, you earn a gift from the emperor, a new currency that can activate special actions, as defined by emperor cards.
Two emperor cards are revealed each game. On their turn, a player can redeem two gifts to activate one card and perform the special action associated with it â°ÃÂàmake an extra dedication at the end of your turn, convert favor tokens into victory points, and more! These new abilities add variety and enhance the experience ofÃÂ¥ÃÂLanterns: The Harvest FestivalÃÂ¥ÃÂwhile honoring the simplicity of the original game.
