Monster Faire Card Game

Angol leírás

In Monster Faire Card Game, the players take on the roles of Mad Scientists. They live in crumbling old manors near the town of Beastly Vale, and compete in building Monsters from parts of dead bodies and bringing them to life. Requires two standard decks of playing cards, and recommended for three to six players. While not a true role-playing game as such, possession of role-playing skills will enhance the play experience.

Beastly Vale

The town of Beastly Vale lies in a forested valley. It is a simple rural woodland town that never has anything interesting or important happen to it – or so they say. For there are plenty of dark and scary stories told around town about the Mad Scientists who live in manors outside of town, and nobody likes to be caught outside after nightfall.

Mad Scientists

A number of Mad Scientists live near Beastly Vale, experimenting in their manors and not keeping healthy hours. Strange lights are seen at night, and paths leading from the manors to the local graveyard are kept in suspiciously good repair. Oh, whatever could they be up to?

The Monster Faire

Being in correspondence with each other, as members of the New Prometheus Society, the Mad Scientists have decided to hold a Monster Faire. They are going to compete in creating hideous new life! Whoever’s monster is the last one standing wins. If their monster is especially fearsome, they may even win the Promethean Scholarship.
