Read the full game description
Mythicals is a compact two-player card game of risk, set collection, and timing. On a turn, draw three cards and keep creatures of one element while sending the others to the public reserve, or take every card of one element already waiting there. Matching requirements let you spend creatures for Mastery tiles worth points. After claiming a tile, bonus markers can raise the value of a future prize or an unmarked tile can be locked against reinforcement. The Day card ends the game as dawn arrives, rewarding the player who best balanced immediate sets against a richer market for the opponent.
