Description

Nefarious is a quick and quirky game where 2 to 6 players compete to build the most outrageous inventions, like a freeze ray or robotic pet, before their opponents can do the same. With easy-to-learn rules, you'll be scheming and strategizing in no time, all in the name of becoming the most terrifying lever the world has ever seen. Your goal is to accumulate 20 or more points worth of inventions and outdo your fellow players. In this 30 to 45 minute game, you'll simultaneously choose actions, allocate minions, and manage your resources to outmaneuver your opponents. But beware, the game comes with twists - literally. Randomly drawn Twist cards at the start of each game change the environment, forcing you to revise your strategy and keep the game exciting and unpredictable. Will you emerge as the ultimate villain and take over the world, or will your opponents outsmart you?
