Description
Nocturne is a puzzly spatial bidding and set collection game of sly mysticsset in a whimsical moonlit forest illustrated by Beth Sobel!
In Nocturne, you play as a fox mystic casting magic spells to collect anassortment of enchanted items. You compete against rival mystics, each of youdeciding when to cast the most powerful spells to move through the forest mostcunningly to secure the best collection. Each turn you decide which items aremost valuable to you and when to hold the other mystics back.
Through two rounds (twilight and moonlight), players compete to collect thestrongest sets of magical items like firebird feathers, creature skulls, glowingmushrooms, mysterious eggs, and rare herbs. These items have value whencollected in specific sets, but can also be combined to fulfill recipes neededfor concoctions, scoring you even more prestige!
Each round you begin with a set of numbered tokens that represent your spellstrengths. These tokens are used to cast spells and bid on a grid of items (andspecial actions) on the forest floor. Once you cast a spell, your rival mysticswill have an opportunity to cast a more powerful spell onto an adjacent item,hoping to compel it towards them and prevent you from collecting what you need!As the forest is explored, different conditions of magical control will restrictpathways, leading to strategic situations in which players can “corner cast”and secure multiple items with less powerful spells. If your spell casting comesup short, you can always make an offering to the forest sprites, magical micethat have their own cache of treasures they may share with you, giving youfurther options to expand your collection.
The set-up of the forest grid and twilight and moonlight goals, along withconcoction cards and special player abilities in each game, provide greatvariability so that no two games of Nocturne will play out the same. Differentspatial goals and situations will necessitate different strategies and tacticsto outwit your opponents in this highly interactive and unique spatialbidding game!
