Voted #1 Game of 2018 from GeekDad.com and GameBoyGeek.com
You've studied the footage, connected the dots, and gathered what meagre
evidence you could. You're close--soon the whole world will know the
truth behind the Cryptid. A group of like-minded cryptozoologists have
come together to finally uncover the elusive creature, but the glory of
discovery is too rich to share. Without giving away some of what you
know you will never succeed in locating the beast, but reveal too much
and your name will be long forgotten!
Cryptid is a unique deduction game of honest misdirection in which
players must try to uncover information about their opponent's clues
while throwing them off the scent of their own. Each player holds one
piece of evidence to help them find the creature, and on their turn they
can try to gain more information from their opponents. Be warned; give
too much away and your opponents might beat you to the mysterious animal
and claim the glory for themselves!
The game includes a modular board, five clue books, and a deck of setup
cards with hundreds of possible setups across two difficulty levels. It
is also supported by an entirely optional digital companion, allowing
for faster game setup and a near-infinite range of puzzles.
