Full publisher description

Expand your re-building opportunities with the Life in Reterra: Moonrise Expansion . First, this expansion features ten double-sided building cards and 54 building tiles, giving you more options for building powers and combinations of building cards without adding any new rules to Life in Reterra . Second, the expansion includes thirty moon tiles that are shuffled with the land tiles in the base game. Choose one of the lunar event boards (or draw one at random), and place it next to the building display. Whenever someone draws a moon tile to refill their hand at the end of the turn, they place it on the lunar event board, then draw another tile. When the lunar event board holds as many moon tiles as the number of players, the board event triggers, giving these tiles to whichever player has the most inhabitants, relics, or buildings depending on the board. These tiles are worth points at game's end.
