FAQ

Errata

Island Folk has received errata so that you can't take multiple extra turns in a row [1]. Here are rulings that will change as a result.

  • If you spend Favors for Island Folk on an extra turn, you won't get an extra turn.
  • If you set up multiple extra turns at once (e.g. one from Island Folk, one from Voyage), you choose one turn to take, and the others fail.
  • If you are Possessed, and they make you spend Favors for Island Folk, you take an Island Folk turn, and then take your normal turn.

Official FAQ (2022)

  • This can never let you take a 3rd turn in a row.

Other rules clarifications

  • You can look at your next hand before deciding to spend 5 Favors for an extra turn.
  • If you play Voyage the same turn you spend Favors with Island Folk, you've hit the "but not a 3rd turn" limit, so you will have to choose which extra turn to take.

Preview

Island Folk lets you take extra turns; maybe that's worth getting some Underlings for.

Secret History

Unchanged. The cost is hemmed in by Importer; to cost 6 Favors, Importer would have had to make +5.
