Description
In the world of Monster Inn, being a good dungeon master requires a strategic eye for talent, especially when it comes to hiring the most fearsome monsters to populate your dark dungeon. The problem is, you're not the only one on the hunt, and the local tavern is about to become a hotbed of competition as you and your fellow dungeon masters bid for the best creatures. With a playtime of just 20 to 30 minutes, this fast-paced game is perfect for 3 to 5 players looking for a quick and thrilling challenge. As the game unfolds, creature cards are revealed, featuring a mix of powerful monsters and pesky humans, each with its own value. The goal is simple: hire the most powerful monsters to defend your dungeon and send those annoying humans to frustrate your competitors. But it's not just about throwing gold coins or gems at the creatures you want - it's about outmaneuvering your opponents and making smart bidding decisions. The twist is that humans are auctioned off first, and if you can't or don't want to bid, you'll be stuck with the current pool of treasures and the card being bid on, which could be a blessing or a curse. Designed by Roman Pelek and released in 2022, Monster Inn is a game of strategy and cunning, where the simplest of rules belies a depth of gameplay that will keep you coming back for more. With its unique blend of auction, market, and set collection mechanics, this fantasy card game is all about being the cleverest dungeon master and filling your dungeon with the most fearsome creatures. Will you emerge victorious, or will your competitors outbid and outmaneuver you? There's only one way to find out - gather your friends, grab some gold coins, and get ready to battle it out for monster supremacy in Monster Inn.
