Horizons of Spirit Island expands the hit tabletop game with more Spirits and island boards to increase replayability and improve accessibility for newer players. It features all the content from the tabletop game of the same name, designed by R. Eric Reuss. The five new Spirits are designed to be ideal for those playing a Spirit Island game for the first time, and three new island boards allow for even more island combinations!

[h2]Horizons of Spirit Island includes:[/h2]
- Spirit - Devouring Teeth Lurk Underfoot: Long ago, the being which would become this Spirit was a small, territorial Spirit of the sand-by-water. It waited patiently for small prey to approach, then frightened them towards its waiting maw; when fresh prey was scarce it would scavenge. Most such Spirits stay tiny, but this one happened to take a bite out of Ember-Eyed Behemoth..
- Spirit - Eyes Watch From the Trees: Even after centuries, the Dahan find many things about this Spirit somewhat enigmatic. It warns of danger, helps those lost or injured in the forest, and only works mischief on aggressors and the arrogant. Back in the days of the First Reckoning, its faint whispers were a source of dread, but to current generations they're a familiar and expected part of the island.
- Spirit - Fathomless Mud of the Swamp: The Island has many swampy deltas along its coasts. Some are fairly navigatable, while others are mazes of murky water, tangled trees, and land that isn't nearly so solid as it appears. This Spirit is one of these latter sorts, with a penchant for spreading - it likes getting everywhere, slowly turning solid ground into muck and mire.
- Spirit - Rising Heat of Stone and Sand: Even after centuries, this Spirit remains a bit unclear on why living things get so unhappy about fatal dessication, but the Dahan make such pleasant patterns across its sands that it's happy to forbear.
- Spirit - Sun-Bright Whirlwind: A Spirit of sun-warmed and gusting air. It spins leaves and dust into miniature cyclones, playfully snatches at small unsecured objects, and sometimes - when joyful, or upset, or full of the vigor of nature - howls across the island, bending trees and abrading the landscape with pebbles, twigs, shells, and the occasional bird nest.
- Island Boards: F, G, and H
