Get ready for a black magic showdown worthy of the most feared sorcerers! In Voodoo, you and your friends take on the roles of wicked wizards aiming to make each other's lives a living hell with hilarious and bizarre curses. The goal? Accumulate curse points and be the first to cross the finish line on the scoreboard.
Each round, the fun kicks off with a roll of five dice. With the ingredients collected, you decide your next move: grab more cards, acquire magical items, or, most importantly, cast a curse on an opponent. And what curses they are! Prepare to see your friends talking with their tongues hanging out, using only one hand for everything, or even running around the table each turn. Chaos is guaranteed!
Each curse cast earns you points, but true glory (and more points!) comes when the target forgets the rule or simply can't bear the weight of that weirdness any longer. Voodoo is a perfect game for parties and gatherings, blending luck from the dice with the strategy of choosing the right victim and the most suitable curse to destabilize them. It's a fast-paced, lighthearted game full of laughter, ideal for those who enjoy a good dose of interaction and a touch of crazy dexterity. If you're looking for a game that will make everyone laugh and get moving, Voodoo is the right choice!
