Legendary Encounters: A Predator Deck Building Game

A Predator-themed deckbuilder that can be played as a co-op against the hunter or as hunters against each other.

Legendary Encounters: A Predator Deck Building Game puts the hunt on your table, based on the first two Predator films. Play the humans and it is a co-op deckbuilder: you recruit cards from a shared row, scan, attack and chase objectives while Predator cards pile up on the board. Play the Predators and the game flips into player versus player, where each of you hunts for the most honor. You take on the roles of characters from the films, and everything is standalone yet fully compatible with the rest of the Legendary Encounters line. It plays one to five, takes about an hour, and suits fans of the movies and of a tense, rough deckbuilder.

Who it's for

You love the Predator films and want a cooperative deckbuilder in a familiar series, with the option to play the hunters.

Not for you if…

You dislike hard, swingy co-op games or violent horror themes. It is made for adults and older teenagers.

Vibe's take

Tense and punishing. Predator cards keep entering the board, so you build your deck while the pressure grows.
