Battling to win the powerful Amulet of Thrayax, you use a combination of Murder and Counter cards to reap souls - AKA points - from the city. To claim the amulet, you'll need to bring all your most devious tactics to the party: Spend souls to swoop from District to District Tip the scales with a variety of corrupt, monstrous and messy "Inconveniences" Hijack your opponent's best-laid plans to feed your own soul engine Manipulate the Amulet's power to unleash the biggest and baddest combos on your unsuspecting rivals When the final bell chimes, the winner is the cult that has beaten and hoodwinked the most souls out of Bleakpyre. If you're looking for a fun, accessible game that also provides a layer of tactical challenge for seasoned gamers, then we think you'll love killing time with Amulet of Thrayax. -description from the publisher
