Cerberus

2018 · Mythology

Cerberus

Players are trapped in the underworld and must reach a barque to escape while a growing infernal watchdog pursues them. Play proceeds semi-cooperatively: players play cards that offer a choice between a modest personal effect or a stronger communal effect, use movement and special abilities to traverse one of several modular boards, and attempt to occupy limited seats on the barque. The watchdog advances as the game progresses, threatening to catch characters who then switch roles and try to prevent the others from escaping. Ten board layouts and adjustable watchdog strength change setup and difficulty each game.
