Description

Un Gioco d’Ombre ("A Game of Shadows") is a 2-4 players card game in which you will take the part of one of the 4 archetypes of pure evil (the Devil, the Orc, the Ghost and the Boogey Man) in an attempt to conquer young and innocent souls before your opponents do. To achieve this you will have at your disposal every evil and corrupt tool ever made like rock music, fantasy novels or card games (like this one). Terrible, isn’t?

The goal of the game is to be the first player to collect 20 young, innocent souls, or points. In each turn the player can do three actions chosen among drawing cards from the deck or playing the ones in their hand, in any order. A little twist is that players are allowed to anticipate one or more of their actions in another player's turn, in order to prevent them from scoring points.
