With simple rules, you'll be diving into the world of mythical creatures in just a few minutes, trying to build patterns and solve puzzles to succeed. As you play, you'll need to use your skills of deduction and induction to figure out what's going on, all while navigating the limits of what you can communicate to your teammates.
