El Castillo del Terror
Players take on the roles of adventurers summoned to a haunted castle to free a captive benefactor. Each player selects a character, collects enchanted items from a shared deck of large cards, and uses those items to trap roaming monsters. Gameplay centers on hand and resource management: choose when to play or discard enchanted objects, capture monsters to score points, and outmaneuver opponents competing for the best hauls. The player with the most and highest-scoring captured monsters wins.
