My Little Scythe – Pie in the Sky Expansion Review

Thanks to our friends at Stonemaeir games, we have been reviewing this title and are ready to do a deep dive on what we think! Is the added cost worth what it brings to your game? Let's dive in!

When getting Carpe Diem from Ravensburger to the table a few times this weekend, I knew I was in for a good time. But how good? Let's dive in!
