About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for another round of magical mayhem in Epic Spell Wars of the Battle Wizards: Annihilageddon Deck-Building Game! If you enjoy slinging spells that explode, burn, and basically turn your opponents into a fine paste, this game is for you. The core idea here is to build your deck of spells and creatures while you and the other wizards try to annihilate each other to claim the Annihilageddon trophy. Each wizard has their own special tricks and a magical familiar that only they can recruit, adding an extra layer of spice to the battle. It's a 'take that' festival where the goal is to be the last wizard standing, no holds barred. Although compatible with other games in the Cerberus Engine series, Annihilageddon introduces some new elements that make everything even more chaotic: Mayhem Events that turn the game upside down, powerful Familiars, Past Champions, and so on. The experience is intense and full of twists, even for those already accustomed to the series' madness. The art is vibrant and the dark humor is guaranteed, but be warned: the game requires a good amount of reading in English, so if your magical vocabulary isn't sharp, you might need a little extra help. It's guaranteed fun for those who aren't afraid of a little chaos and wizardly rivalry.
