About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for an epic hunt across Europe in the classic board game 'The Fury of Dracula'! Here, one player dons the shadowy mantle of Dracula himself, while the other three unite as fearless vampire hunters. The premise is a bit reminiscent of the famous Scotland Yard, but with a much more sinister and dangerous twist. Dracula, with his ancient cunning, must move stealthily across the continent, leaving a trail of dangers and deceptions behind him. There are his minions, unexpected encounters, and, of course, the threat of creating six new vampires to dominate the night. If he manages to spread his dark influence without being caught, Europe will fall under his eternal rule! On the other side, the hunters work as a team, using their unique abilities to track the vampire. Every misstep, every clue left behind, could be the difference between salvation and damnation. When the hunters and the creatures of the night (or Dracula himself!) meet, combat is inevitable, decided by a system that tests everyone's courage and strategy. This game is an adventure of deduction and pursuit, where tension builds with every turn. Will you be able to contain the vampire's fury, or will Europe succumb to darkness? Prepare for nights of intense suspense and strategy!
