Weirdwood Manor

In Weirdwood Manor, work together to battle against time and malevolent monsters in an ever-changing magical mansion!

Weirdwood Manor is a mysterious and magical place where rooms and the passages connecting them can change over time. The game features a unique time mechanism: each time a player or the fairy monster takes an action, time advances in the game and the connections between rooms change thanks to unique rotating rings on the game board.

Players have some influence over how they use their actions to affect the speed (or slowness) at which time passes, but be careful, if players use up all their allocated time without defeating the monster, they lose! You play as one of six asymmetrical characters and face off against one of three fairy monsters, each with unique mechanics and defeat conditions.

You will use dice, cards, resource management, and location actions to move through the ever-changing mansion in pursuit of the fairy monster and its minions.

You can also recruit additional companions to help you, and you will improve your character's abilities as you gain experience. Each turn, players will use their own deck of cards to perform a main action. The rooms they move into may offer additional actions and benefits. In addition, players can use their own unique powers and those of their companions.

These combinations can create varied and potentially powerful chains of actions during a player's turn. However, after each player's turn, the fairy monster will act using its own custom deck of cards.

As the game progresses, the fae monster's strength will increase and the situation will become more difficult for the players, who will therefore need to work together to overcome the challenges they face. The game offers deep tactical choices and a degree of unpredictability that will make traditional leadership virtually impossible; players will really need to strategize as a group to succeed as the threat intensifies.

Thus, if the players manage to defeat the Fae monster before the time runs out—or before the Fae monster fulfills its own unique victory condition—the players will win the game and have preserved the safety of Weirdwood Manor for now... until the next threat arrives!
