From BoardGameGeek

Hell-o and welcome to Demoniac, the devilish new card game for 2-4 players. The goal is to possess your hapless victim, and then use them to defeat the exorcist. The first player to convert their victim and the exorcists into Demoniacs wins. Each player has a victim with mind and body strengths. Demon cards are played from your hand to torment your victims mind and body with precision. Once a victim is properly tormented, a dice roll determines whether they become fully possessed. Players must watch out for the exorcist, who gets a chance every turn to use their holy power to disrupt players. "Divinity" cards are revealed each turn which change the rules of the game and can set players back considerably. Players can use "Disturbance" cards to cancel them out and keep their diabolical plans moving forward. The first player to possess their victim and then attack the exorcist with a horde of matching demons wins the game. Can you conquer goodness and be the first to snatch souls? Choose your victim and get possessing!
