About the game

What you do in a play session

Get your claws ready, because the Fur Brigade is back to wreak havoc on Dr. Foo! If you're already hooked on the deck-building and time-management loop of the base game, this expansion is exactly the shot of adrenaline you need to keep the-loop-going. We're talking about fresh-faced-and-fury-filled-agents that completely shift how you approach your turns.

Meet Catruman the Black, a master of forbidden magic who breaks the standard rules by holding four cards in hand instead of three. This small-but-mighty change opens up massive combo potential for players who love deep deck-building. Then there's Arsène Lupus, the werewolf expert of Charcoal 14, who can teleport across Eras using new resources. It's a game-changer for positioning and timing!

But it's not just about the characters. The new R&D Artifacts—like Voidhole Dimensions and Charcoal 14 teleporters—add layers of tactical complexity that weren't there before. These tools force you to adapt your strategy and think several steps ahead. Whether you're playing as a magic-wielding feline or a teleporting werewolf, the expansion injects a sense of discovery and variety that makes every session feel unique. Just a heads-up: you'll need the base game to join the fray. Ready to dive back in?
