#1 💰Prosperity Essential! Bigger money and victory point cards (Platinum and Colony) boost any game, plus special treasure cards like Bank and Quarry and a bunch of great new actions.

#4 🌙 Nocturne Night” cards happen in a second action phase, making turns more interesting. Plus, minor random Hexes and Boons to spice up the game. #5 🐾Menagerie - Horses! Plus “Ways” - an alternate, shared way to play any action in your hand, in case the action on the card doesn’t apply right now.

#6 ⛵️Seaside The 2nd expansion, and still one of the best. Introduces “Duration” cards, which last more than one turn. #7 🗡️Plunder - Loot! A pile of treasures with assorted bonus properties. Traits also mix up things even further by modifying all cards of one name for the whole game.

#8 🐦⬛Dark Ages - Usually not a favorite, but I like it. “Shelters” replace some of the default starting deck for more interesting starts. Plus lots of Trashing (damned plague!) and RATS! #9 🔥Adventures - Events! Save up for in order to buy permanent perks or quick effects.

#10 🌿Allies - Favors grant effects based on whichever of 23 Allies is picked at the beginning. Not bad. #11 ⛰️Hinterlands - Lots of Reaction cards. Not bad, but not a favorite. #12 🎭 Intrigue - I mean, it’s not terrible. Just not my favorite. Masquerade, though, is an interesting add to any game.
