Board Game - La Bête

It was in the year 1764 that the beast appeared on our lands and made them their own. A year later, his fame exceeded the borders of our province and we began to think that no mortal would ever come to an end. Under his assaults, The land of Gevaudan was gradually sinking into darkness. The Beast is an asymmetrical game between a player playing the role of the Beast of Gevaudan and one or more players playing the Historical Investigators in the Lozère of France of the 18th century. To win, the Beast must have at least 25 victims before the end of the game which takes place season after season for 3 years. The Investigator(s) must either prevent it or unmask it by identifying its secret identity.In each turn, a seasonal event occurs, the Beast plans its attack, investigators move, the Beast makes or not victims, and finally, investigators inspect the place where they are.Each investigator is specialized in an identity of the Beast: for example, the Bishop of Mende will identify a demon, while the envoy of the King will more easily unmask if the culprit is of human nature.Players: 2-5 Age: 10+Duration: 45 minLanguage : French
