The Oddities Expansion adds a darker, unpredictable twist to the Victorian social season. At the start of each Day, one Oddity becomes active for the entire table, changing a familiar rule or creating a new opportunity until the next Overnight Restock. Players must adjust how they furnish their estates, attend Events, and use their Social Tokens as each Day introduces a different twist.
The expansion also introduces The Mystic, an optional Player Board that keeps Estate Cards face-up in a personal Archive rather than in hand. Once per round, The Mystic can take an Archive Action, discarding cards to activate bonuses in fully furnished rooms. New Items, Personal Events, Grand Events, and The Rival Mystic solo Scenario expand the base game.
Players still compete to advance furthest on the Status Track. Status: A Victorian Affair is required.
