About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey everyone! Check out this promo card for 'The Hunger' that popped up in the Pegasus Spiele Magazin Ringbote #3/2022. It's Bluey, a noble who can boost your blood points, but there's a catch: she slows you down a bit. You know how it is, right? We always want more blood, but gotta watch out for the downsides!

This addition is super easy to integrate. Before you start that bloody hunt, just shuffle Bluey into your hunting card pile. She doesn't have any fancy abilities; the deal is straightforward: if you successfully hunt her, you get 4 blood points. But hey, pay attention: your speed decreases by 1. It's that classic 'is it worth the risk?' decision. Do these 4 points make up for the extra slowness when you need to escape or catch other prey? It's the kind of choice that makes 'The Hunger' so fun and tense!

For those who enjoy 'The Hunger' and want a little variation without overcomplicating things, this card is a gem. It adds a small strategic twist that doesn't stray too far from the game's standard flow. It's perfect for players who like testing new tactics and seeing how small changes affect the game's dynamics. If you've already mastered the base game and want a little extra spice, you can bet Bluey will give you something to think about. It's a small expansion that fits right into your pocket and the game's dynamics without making your head spin.
