Spirit Island Branch & Claw

Spirit Island Branch and Claw

Nature Fights Back: The Jungle Awakens

The Invaders are spreading like a blight across your shores, but the island is far from defenseless. Spirit Island: Branch & Claw is the first essential expansion to the critically acclaimed cooperative strategy game, bringing the raw, unpredictable power of nature to your tabletop.

This expansion introduces two new Spirits—Sharp Fangs Behind the Leaves and Keeper of the Forbidden Wilds—along with a host of new mechanics that transform the Invaders’ predictable patterns into a fight for survival.

What This Expansion Adds to Your Island:

• The Event Deck: Say goodbye to predictable turns. The Event Deck introduces dynamic, mid-round shifts that represent the ever-changing nature of the island and its inhabitants.

• New Danger Tokens: Control the board with four new token types: Beasts to hunt the invaders, Wilds to block exploration, Disease to stop builds, and Strife to neutralize Ravages.

• Two Formidable Spirits: Master the aggressive, mobile playstyle of Sharp Fangs or the slow, territorial power of Keeper of the Forbidden Wilds.

• Increased Complexity: With 52 New Power Cards and 15 New Fear Cards, the strategic depth of your games will reach soaring new heights.

• A New Adversary: Face off against the French Plantation, a colonial force that prioritizes expansion above all else.

Why It’s a “Must-Have”:

If you’ve mastered the base game, Branch & Claw is the “missing piece” of the Spirit Island experience. It fills out the board with life and unpredictability, ensuring that no two defensive stands ever feel the same.
