A 12 card-expansion for Mystery of the Abbey published for the Essen 2005 Fair that includes new Scriptorium, Bibliotheca, and Event cards that bring additional intrigue and fun to the Mystery of the Abbey board game.
5 New Scriptorium cards include:
Theological Controversy - enabling you to ask questions of all the monks in a room, rather than just one
Liturgy of the Hours - during Mass YOU get to decide in which order and to whom cards get passed
Acts of the Holy Apostles
Impure Illuminations
Blasphemous Treatise
6 New Event cards include:
Tempus Fugit! - which increases the pace of the game allowing players to move 3 steps with only 3 turns in between each Mass
A New Corpse - adds an additional body to the game
Another New Corpse - adds an additional body to the game
Tentative Escape - gives a chance to the culprit to escape from the Abbey and end the game prematurely
Catechism
Spring Fair
1 New Bibliotheca card:
Calumnious Denunciation - allows you to secretly write down the name of a suspect of your choosing. If another player later accuses your suspect of being the culprit, but he proves to be innocent, you will immediately score 4 points.
The cards are simply shuffled into their respective draw piles before the start of the game.
