“Adventure Awaites! In Mice & Mystics players take on the roles of those still loyal to the king - but to escape the clutches of Vanestra, they have been turned into mice! Play as cunning field mice who must race through a castle now twenty times larger than before.”
This is a cooperative game in which all the players work together through chapters of a wonderful narrative to save their kingdom. You’ll fight rats, cockroaches (a grape is your greatest weapon against these guys!), spiders and the biggest threat (literally), the house cat Brodie. You use square board segments that are interactive (in the sense that there are markers on them that mean you can find treasure or jump through a hole to the flip side), ever changing and have great artwork.
Along the way, you’ll hoard cheese that you can use to activate abilities or purchase new gear. But the cheese isn’t always a good thing. If your foes roll cheese on the dice, then it goes into the cheese wheel that will advance the game. If you don’t beat the chapter before the game advances to the last page, you lose that round.
