Description

In Nessos, you'll embody Greek heroes trying to capture mythological creatures and offer them to the gods. The goal is to collect enough Amphora cards to reach the rank of gods' chosen One, but beware of Charon, who's trying to send you to Hell. The game is simple to learn and plays quickly, with each round lasting only a few minutes. Players take turns offering cards to each other, trying to bluff their way to victory. You can choose to accept a card, refuse it, or pass it on to another player, all while trying to collect the right combination of creatures to earn bonus points. But be careful - if you end up with three Charon cards, you're out of the game. With its unique blend of bluffing, deduction, and mythology, Nessos is a fun and fast-paced game for 3 to 6 players that's perfect for a quick game night.
