Players must discuss their plans for the round, but they have to be careful - the witch hunter is listening. As the game progresses, the witch hunter gets to deal new cards to each town player, observe the cards being passed around, and even pick cards from the towns to try and capture the witches. Meanwhile, the town players need to communicate carefully, managing risks and protecting key cards, all while trying to stay one step ahead of the witch hunter.

Whether you're playing as the witch hunter or one of the towns, Curses & Covens is a thrilling experience that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish.
