Ham Helsing

Opis w języku angielskim: Based on the best-selling graphic novel about a reluctant monster-hunting pig, Ham Helsing is a cooperative adventure board game. Join Ham, Ronin, Malcom, and Lobos as they attempt to save the world! Using a deck-crafting system with transparent cards, you’ll protect locations from endless swarms of minions while improving your skills. Can you power up fast enough to stop the Villain from destroying Mud Canyon and save the day? Pick a character and grab your starting deck. Each character has a special ability and their own deck with a few custom cards that fit their style of play. On your turn, you’ll use the symbols on the cards in your hand to travel to new Locations (some of which allow special actions), to Defeat Minions before they overrun a Location (each of which has a limit), and to use Knuckles (the “fearless” mercenary bear) to Scare off some Minions. When battling Minions, you’ll need to match the colors of the Minion with the color of attack you make to defeat them. There are 4 different colors to match, and some Minions take 2 colors to defeat, so plan your card play carefully, and don’t get pig-headed. Some Minions will bite back, so keep an eye on your health as well. For each Defeated Minion, you’ll gain skills and money. With enough skill points, you’ll get free attacks. Spend your hard-earned cash to buy Attack Cards and Special Cards at the Rat Market. It may be a cooperative game, but the buying is a free-for-all, so be a greedy pig and grab your gear quick (or help everyone think through the best cards for the different decks, you do you). Attack cards will let you do more damage in battle, move, heal, and more. Special cards are where things get interesting with combos, shared bonuses, and damage boosters. Upgrade cards are transparent, so if a symbol can fit on your card, you can slip that upgrade into the sleeve of a starting card. Not only is it a pig deal that you are literally upgrading your deck as you Defeat Minions, but you’re improving the cards you’ll use on your next turn! When you feel strong enough, you'll need to go after the Villain. There are 4 Villains, each with a different starting health, special ability, and power-ups. Villains will power-up when a Location on the board is lost. You’ll need to go whole hog as a team to defend those Locations! After every round, the Villian moves 1 Location closer to Mud Canyon. If you haven’t brought the Villain’s health to 0 by the end of the last player’s turn at Mud Canyon, your bacon is burnt. With art by the graphic novel author, Rich Moyer, and filled with pig puns, Ham Helsing delivers a hamtastic cooperative adventure for 1 to 4 players. -description from designer
