Twisted Cryptids

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A legendary strategic tabletop game from the creators of Here to Slay and Casting Shadows.

2-4 Players | 60 Mins | Ages 10+

Features: Events, Variable Player Powers, Variable Set-up

Theme: Card Game

Description:

It’s so hard to feel seen as a Cryptid these days.

In this easy-to-learn strategy game, you’ll navigate your love-hate relationship with humans and outwit your fellow Cryptids to earn your status as a true legend. As hikers, hunters, and researchers scatter across the wilderness hoping to catch a glimpse of you, you’ll stage elaborate hoaxes, plant perfect decoys, and lurk discreetly in the shadows to build up your myth. You might even expose your true self once in a while, but be warned: vulnerability can come at a price.
