A major discovery has just happened. There is a whole new world to explore. Where is it you ask? Why, it is up there in the clouds! The Bunny King has asked his loyal followers to expand their influence and seek new opportunities to extend his kingdom. This new cloud world offers riches that can be claimed by the bold and daring. Now is the time to gear up and begin another grand adventure and become the most loyal of the Bunny King’s subjects.

Bunny Kingdom: In The Sky is an expansion to the base game (Bunny Kingdom) and is for 2-5 players.

What does it add?

In The Sky expansion adds some fun elements. First it has a cloud playing board full of new territories and a ton of new “wonderous” resources that can be used as multipliers in fifes. It also has the ability for a 5th player to join in on the fun. Another great addition are the carrotedales. These are huge castles that give a 5x multiplier. Lastly, In The Sky adds a currency system where players collect money when they create districts. At the end of the game that money is multiplied against certain types of exotic resources to add victory points.

I like that the In The Sky expansion adds more area to claim. The cloud is full of new wonderous resource territories that can be used to increase a player’s final score. This will add new strategy, especially when coupled with the new parchment cards, which I feel are a bit more potent than the original ones.

I do not feel that the expansion takes anything away from the base game. After playing with the expansion I decided that I would use it any time I play the game, so I moved the new board and all the components into the base game box.

Do I want this?

You betcha! Having more options in a game I love is always the best reason for adding an expansion to my collection plus the detail and color on the cloud board is bright, vibrant and fun! In The Sky brings a variety of new options to the game that enhance the original.

Are you kidding?!? It is more bunnies! How is this not a need?

In The Sky has extra paths to victory with the currency and wondrous resources. It also adds the fifth player ability. All of this makes it an expansion that will always be used when I play the base game. And also bunnies, lots and lots of bunnies.
