About the game

What you do in a play session

In Kreus, you and your friends are Titans trying to create the perfect planet. But beware, as besides dealing with the elements of nature, you must face the wrath of Ouranos, the sky god. This is a cooperative game where deduction and subtle communication are key. Each turn is divided into two phases: divination and creation. In the divination phase, you secretly choose a card from your hand and spend energy to give hints or exchange cards with other players. In the creation phase, everyone reveals their cards and tries to combine the elements to form the planet. The game ends when all cards are played or when the planet is complete. Get ready to think together, trust others, and use your instincts to win!
