Description
Alphabeasts Attack is a super fun cooperative word game that's all about working together to save the world from these crazy Alphabeasts. Designed by Daryl Chow and released in 2022, this game is perfect for 2 to 5 players who are looking for a challenge that's easy to learn but still pretty exciting. Each game takes around 20 to 30 minutes to play, making it a great option for a quick game night with friends. In Alphabeasts Attack, players have to think fast and come up with words that can defeat as many Alphabeasts as possible. The twist is that each Alphabeast can only be defeated if the word contains the letter that the Alphabeast is made of. And if you're feeling extra brave, you can even try to take down an Alphaboss, but you'll need to meet a specific condition to do so. As you play, you'll start to collect scars if you can't defeat the Alphabeasts, and the game ends if you get too many of them. But don't worry, you can also scavenge for brains from the defeated Alphabeasts, and collecting enough of those is the key to winning the game. What makes Alphabeasts Attack really interesting is the combination of word-building and strategy. You'll need to communicate with your teammates to come up with the best words to defeat the Alphabeasts, and you'll have to think carefully about which words will get you the most brains. With its unique blend of cooperative gameplay, word-building, and set collection, Alphabeasts Attack is a game that's all about working together and using your vocab skills to save the day. And if you really love the game, you can even check out the Double-Letter Promo Expansion to add some extra excitement to your gameplay.
