Tales & Games: Baba Yaga

Get ready for a race against the fearsome Baba Yaga in this game that feels like a Russian folktale coming to life! The old witch with chicken legs is after you, and the only way to escape is by gathering ingredients for three secret spells. Each player has their own spell cards, which must be kept hidden. On your turn, you reveal a spell card and dash through the forest, flipping ingredient tokens one by one with a single hand, trying to find what you need and hiding the rest. But beware! While you search, other players move the Baba Yaga figure around the board, trying to complete a circuit before you find the ingredients. If she catches you, your spell goes to the bottom of your stack. If you're faster, you not only cast the spell but can even alter the game, changing the map, swapping ingredient locations, or making future spells easier. The first player to complete their three spells escapes and wins! The game also includes variants for younger players, those seeking more challenge, and even for those who enjoy the haunted house on constant move. It's pure adrenaline and memory, perfect for anyone who enjoys a fast-paced, thematic game.
