Carnival of Monsters
Draft lands and beasts to build the grandest monster menagerie at the annual banquet.
Who it's for
Fans of drafting and set collection who want a mid-weight game with personality and a theme kids and adults both enjoy.
Not for you if…
You dislike loans and interest-style debt mechanics or want a heavy strategic brain-burner. The dice-based captures can also sour players who want zero luck.
Vibe's take
Satisfying set-building with a playful hunter theme and the constant push-and-pull of what to keep versus what to pass on.
