Cursed Goblins is a competitive card game for 2 to 5 players. Each player takes on the role of a dark lord who curses their opponents' minions until only one dark lord is left standing. Players do not know what cards are in their own hands, but they do know what cards are in their opponents' hands, and what cards have already been played. Players will also give each other hints about the cards in their hands throughout the game. On their turn, a player does the following in order: 1. Play any number of cards one at a time. Then, if all of those cards were played successfully, discard any number of cards. 2. Give a hint to the player to your left or right. 3. Draw until you have 5 cards in hand. Each card placed in a player's playing area has a damage value. If the sum of all the damage values in a player's playing area is greater than or equal to their life points, that player is eliminated. -description from publisher
