Monster Academy: Hexes & Hijinks 2026

Welcome to Monster Academy! Take on the role of a kid monster – perhaps Ruddy the dragon, Addy the vampire princess, Growf the wereboy, or Lucy the demon girl – and work together with your fellow students to complete a series of Quests to save the school, with the challenge only growing more dangerous with each adventure!

Monster Academy: Hexes & Hijinks is a cooperative adventure game driven by cards. Tackle seven unique game scenarios, vanquish challenges in your way, face surprising events, and collaborate to reach victory. Gameplay is straightforward: each turn, choose and play one of your three cards. Place Action tokens to gain bonus abilities, lay traps to ensnare enemies, and roll the dice to see what threats arise. The actions you take and teamwork you inspire can seriously boost what you and your fellow players can do!

The experience you gain with each Quest will unlock new cards that allow you to customize and develop the student decks with cards of your choice – every game will upgrade your characters differently! And when the Quests are over, the fun has just begun, as the enemies, students, and events can be mixed and matched to create your own sandbox of Monster Academy experiences!
