About this game

Comic Hunters is set in a world of back-issue bins and dusty shop shelves, where you are chasing down the exact comics your collection is missing: a villain's first appearance, that legendary costume debut, the coveted issue number one. Across three rounds you visit stores to draft cards, then arrange your haul into runs and sets that pay off at the end. The tension sits in the drafting itself, other collectors want the same key issues you do, and passing at the wrong moment can cost you the piece that completes your set. A cozy nerdy theme wrapped around a genuinely sharp set-collection puzzle.
