About the game

What you do in a play session

Super Fantasy Brawl: Mental Might arrives as the first expansion for the beloved Super Fantasy Brawl, adding three fresh champions that reshape the battles. You get Izabella, the Fateweaver, who spins her wheelchair like she spins fate, granting repositioning or extra power whenever you need it. Al’Kemi, the wish‑granting Djinn, turns an opponent's strength into a lethal weakness, letting you flip the script with a single wish. Finally, Xinshén, the Kinetic Kitty, blends panther‑like reflexes with psychic abilities to manipulate space‑time, controlling the board with fists or telekinesis. The Area Movement mechanic on a Hexagon Grid offers tactical freedom, while Hand Management forces you to pick the right card at the right moment. Each champion boasts Variable Player Powers, ensuring no two games feel the same. With a 30‑45 minute playtime, it’s perfect for 2‑4 players who love fast, strategic fights. If you already enjoy the base game, this expansion adds more variety, deeper strategies, and extra miniatures to collect.
