Description
In Behext, a magical combat deck-building game, the line between power and danger is thin. You'll start as one of several unique Battlemages, each with their own magical discipline, and then build your deck to suit your strategy. The twist is that your hand of spells is both your defense and your currency, so you'll need to sacrifice cards and even your own willpower to customize your arcane arsenal. As you play, you'll constantly interact with your opponents, deflecting Hexes and counter-cursing each other into submission. With the ability to play newly conjured spells immediately, the game is fast-paced and unpredictable. Will you focus on forcing discards, negation magic, or direct damage, or take a risk with chaotic spells to build Victory points? With easy-to-learn rules and playtime of 50 to 90 minutes, Behext is a thrilling game for 3 to 5 players that's perfect for those who love fantasy and combat.
