You’re Fighting For Your Life – A Player Turn To complete any of the Monsters’ tasks or to defeat them, players have to gather specific Items, located throughout the village, that they will use (and then discard) at specific locations. For example, to help develop a cure for the Wolf Man, you have to use blue (intellectual) Items at the laboratory or to smash one of Dracula’s coffins, you must use red (physical) items. The most interesting and unique mechanic this game offers is how the victor is decided during battles. Cubes (which represent troops) from each opposing army are thrown into the tower and whichever has more is the winner, and fewer is the loser. Each player will take turns rotating around the group until there are no cards left to choose from. This signifies the end of a round, which there are three of in the game. Work strategically to build your garden with the highest points before the game comes to an end!
