About this game

Everyone has one clue about where the Cryptid hides. No one has enough alone. Cryptid is a pure deduction game where you ask yes-or-no questions about a hex map, triangulating the single correct space from overlapping logic. Minimalist, elegant, and quietly brutal when someone narrows it down before you do.
