About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for surgical madness in Monstrosity! In the not-too-distant future, brilliant (and slightly disturbed) minds are busy assembling bizarre creatures from mutated body parts. Your mission? Create your own personal monster and pit it against your opponents' abominations. The game unfolds in two electrifying phases, each with its own deck of cards. In the first stage, you'll scour the black market for limbs, torsos, and heads to assemble your masterpiece in your operating theater. While you try to piece things together, your rival might attempt to steal your components, sabotage your supplies, or simply dismantle your creation before it's even ready. The second phase is pure adrenaline: the assembled creatures face off in epic battles! Use attack and defense cards to boost your monster's fighting abilities and secure victory. It's a fast-paced, gruesome, and strategic showdown, perfect for those who enjoy direct conflict and a touch of dark humor. While it can accommodate up to four players, the most intense and recommended experience is for two.
