Description
La Bête is a thrilling board game for 2 to 5 players that drops you into a dark fantasy world of horror and adventure. Designed by Charlec Couronnaud and published in 2022, this game is all about asymmetric gameplay, where one player takes on the role of the Beast, while the others play as investigators trying to uncover its identity. The Beast's goal is to claim 25 victims before the end of the game, while the investigators must work together to prevent this from happening or reveal the Beast's secret identity. As the game unfolds over 12 rounds, representing 3 years with 4 seasons each, the investigators and the Beast engage in a cat-and-mouse game of hidden movement and secret unit deployment. The Beast uses its special powers to strike at unsuspecting victims, while the investigators try to track its movements and protect potential targets. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of 45 to 60 minutes, La Bête is a game that's perfect for fans of adventure, fantasy, and horror. The variable player powers and team-based gameplay add a layer of complexity and excitement, making each game a unique and thrilling experience. Will the Beast succeed in its bloody rampage, or will the investigators be able to stop it in its tracks? There's only one way to find out.
