Game Details

The fourth and final set of Monsters in a mini tuckbox, with Egg tokens. Monsters is as portable and easy-to-learn as Love Letter and Coup. It features bluffing and strategic planning. Players with creativity and deductive reasoning will love it. There's multiple unique sets/cycles of the game, so once you know the rules for one set, you know the rules for all the sets. The game plays best with 2 or 3 players, but supports up to 4 players. This fourth set adds 15 Egg tokens and the Fight mechanism, where you can send your opponents' smaller, weaker monsters to the Dead Zone during the game. Card Game Accessories Each Monster grants between 1 and 12 points at the end of the game, but watch out: most Tactical cards ("things") cancel 2 specific Monsters! Your turn: Take a card into your hand from the pool of 4; if it's a monster, it wakes up, triggering its ability. If you are over your hand limit of 3, discard face-down to your personal discard pile. (Peek at your discards at any time.) When the deck is empty: Everyone discards down to 2 cards and compares their scores to determine the winner. —description from the publisher
