The Puer expansion enhances the game with Court of Nobles, enriching your options with two new main actions - bringing the total to seven, and the special Imperial decrees then bring even more complexity to the game and expand your strategic choices.
As a first new action you can visit the Court, for which you'll use the new Courtier meeples. The halls of the Court not only bring immediate bonuses but also points at the end of the round if you hold the majority there.
The second new action is the puer market - featuring pieces that can be linked together to earn bonuses not only from newly added pieces, but also from previous ones. Careful planning is therefore much desirable. In addition, completed puers also help to earn points at the end of the game.
It is necessary to be prepared for the fact that the complexity of the Tea Garden increases quite significantly with this expansion, and the time required to play the game is also a bit longer than without it. The Puer expansion also contains components for Solo play.
