Weirdwood Manor

Enter the world of Weirdwood Manor, where the magical and dangerous realm of the Fae intersects with the everyday world of the Real.

You’ll assume the role of one of 6 different characters and coordinate strategies with your companions to battle against one of 3 asymmetrically designed Fae Monsters and their insidious minions, the Clockwork Scarabs, who have invaded the Manor and threaten its enigmatic ruler, Lady Weirdwood.

Experience a unique temporal mechanic that reflects the magical, ever-shifting Manor. Every time a player or the Fae Monster takes an action, time will move forward in the game and the connections between the rooms will shift via unique rotating corridor rings on the game board.

Fighting against time, you’ll make use of dice drafting, card play, resource management, and location actions as you move through the shifting Manor in pursuit ofultimate victory over the Fae Monster!

Gameplay Highlights

Players will make use of dice drafting, card play, resource management, and location actions as they move through the ever-shifting Manor in pursuit of the Fae Monster and his minions.

As the game progresses, the Fae Monster’s strength will grow and things will become more dire for the players so they will have to work together to solve the challenges in front of them. The game offers deep tactical choice and a degree of unpredictability that reduces traditional leader quarterbacking; the players will truly have to strategize as a group to succeed as the threat deepens!

Unique Modular Board

Weirdwood Manor is an unpredictable, magical place

Rooms can shift and corridors can move, leading you to unexpected places and opportunities. Our unique board features a modular design where the various room positions change from game to game — and even during the same game. And our circular design allows the connecting corridors to rotate throughout the game, affecting where the players can go and what they can do!

Play With – And Against – Time

The game features a compelling temporal mechanic

Every time a player or the Fae Monster takes an action, time will move forward in the game and the connections between the rooms will shift via the rotating corridor rings on the game board. Players have some agency in how to use their actions to affect how quickly (or slowly) time moves; but beware, if the players use up their allotted time and have not defeated the monster, they lose!

Asymmetrical Characters

Choose from 6 unique characters in the game, each with their own set of powers and cards

Using their unique powers, players can create varied and powerful chains of actions on their turn. Players will also slowly improve their character as the game progresses, adding more dice to use in battles, allotting experience points to give them an edge in other areas of their choice, or even recruiting companions to help them!

And Asymmetrical Monsters!

The game will offer 3 Fae Monsters to choose from; the Chaos Ogre, the Mîn Wraith, and Therus the Dark Mage

Each Fae Monster comes with their own board, unique mechanics, and deck of cards that will have them act in differing and unpredictable ways. And each Fae Monster will have his own, sinister way to bring possible defeat to the players!
