Description

Maniacal is a strategy game where 2 to 5 players compete to become the most infamous supervillain in the world.

These rooms attract a variety of henchmen, including Beasts, Criminals, Scientists, and Mystics, who can be recruited to complete evil contracts around the globe. As players assign their henchmen to contracts, they must manage their time and resources carefully, balancing the need to complete missions with the risk of failure and its consequences. With a playtime of 60 to 120 minutes, Maniacal offers a thrilling experience for fans of comic book-themed games, with a normal level of complexity that's easy to learn for experienced board game players.
