Fictitious

2026

From BoardGameGeek

Step into the world of mythical beasts as a daring cryptozoologist! Collect rare creature parts, trade magical eggs, and craft legendary beings before your rivals do. On your turn, take up to three actions: gather creature parts or eggs, place cards to build creatures, play potions to boost yourself or sabotage others, or trade eggs for powerful resources. Use a strategy to assemble creatures of matching rarity and region for maximum points. The game ends when the first player completes four full creatures. Score points for your completed creatures, apply bonuses for rarity and region matches, and count leftover eggs. The player with the highest total points wins, with ties broken by eggs and unused potions. Fast-paced, strategic, and full of clever rivalry-will you become the ultimate cryptozoologist?
