Rift-themed games rarely bring good news, but Avid Games' Eerie Worlds is a delightful exception. This highly anticipated sequel to Cards, the Universe and Everything offers a monster-filled tactical CCG experience brimming with fun and educational elements.
The game features a visually stunning array of monsters, each inspired by real-world creatures from mythology and folklore worldwide.
From Japanese Yokai like Jikininki and Kuchisake-onna to Slavic beings such as Vodyanoy and Psoglav, Eerie Worlds boasts an impressively diverse roster. Bigfoot, Mothman, the Nandi Bear, El Chupacabra, and countless others join the fray, each accompanied by detailed, well-researched descriptions.
Eerie Worlds incorporates four Alliances (Grimbald, Zerrofel, Rivin, and Synnig) and multiple Hordes, creating significant strategic depth through varied monster properties. Players build their Grimoire, a personal monster collection, by merging duplicate cards from the 160 base cards, unlocking numerous additional monsters with more planned for future updates.
Avid Games has announced two upcoming Horde additions within the next few months, ensuring ongoing challenges and replayability.
Gameplay involves a nine-card deck (eight monsters, one world card) and nine fast-paced 30-second turns. Players must strategically manage mana, exploit synergies, and make crucial decisions under pressure.
