About Cosmoctopus: Beyond the Inky Realm, from BoardGameGeek:
A small group of Devotees have glimpsed what was once hidden; a colossal glass cephalopod they call Prismoctopus, cloaked in the endless dark of space, bending and scattering light to remain unseen.
These Devotees are straying from tradition, treading the Path of Glass in pursuit of heretical knowledge, chasing patterns in fractured light and strange numbers once dismissed as meaningless.
Meet Prismoctopus, a new celestial cephalopod, and harness a shimmering new resource: glass! Gather this cosmic material from rarely visited Inky Realm tiles and use it to influence Prismoctopus - what mysterious rewards will you earn in return?
Discover all-new devotee cards, including mind-bending riddle Hallucinations, cyclical Constellations, and powerful Relics unlocking access to hidden Inky Realm tiles.
