Description
In Pest, you'll take on the role of a leader of a ruling house in a medieval empire that's been devastated by a plague. Your goal is to restore the empire to its former glory by rebuilding cities, curing infected people, and implementing new technologies. With 1 to 5 players, you'll navigate the challenges of the plague, which will spread and evolve over the course of the game's 60 to 150 minutes of playtime. As you grow your house's influence, you'll unlock new actions and resources, allowing you to make progress in rebuilding and combating the plague. With a modular board and variable player powers, each game will be unique, and you'll need to adapt to the changing circumstances to emerge victorious. Designed by Thomas Nielsen and Kai Starck, Pest is a game of strategy and survival, where the player with the most renown at the end of the game will be declared the savior of the empire.
