Description

In Critters Below, you'll join forces with up to five other players to survive in a shelter deep underground, where a war is raging above. The rules are easy to learn, but the game is full of challenges, as you navigate the dark with limited resources and try to make it out alive. Each turn, you'll take actions, using item cards to your advantage, but beware - you must use a card's effects once you've turned it face up, which can sometimes work against you. As you play, you'll vote on whether to open the bunker doors, hoping it's safe outside, and try to manage your conditions, like starvation, which can be deadly if not addressed. With variable player powers and the ability to share information or deceive others, Critters Below is a thrilling 30 to 60 minute game that's perfect for 1 to 6 players, where cooperation and backstabbing can both lead to victory.
