Setup

  • Each player chooses a villain and takes their individual board, Villain deck, and Fate deck.

  • Each player shuffles their Villain deck and places it in the designated zone on their personal board.

  • All Fate decks are shuffled together into a single shared central pile.

  • Deal 4 starting cards from the Villain deck to each player. The player who most recently acted in a villainous way goes first.

Rules

  • On your turn, move your villain to a location on your board and activate available actions: play cards, draw cards, gain power, or use Fate against a rival.

  • The Fate action lets you draw a card from the central pile and play it against any rival, adding heroes or obstacles that will hinder their progress.

  • Each villain has unique abilities and restrictions that change how they can play their cards.

Victory conditions

  • The first player to fully complete their unique objective wins: Maleficent must put Aurora to sleep and prevent her from being awakened; Captain Hook must defeat Peter Pan; the Queen of Hearts must execute all characters in her realm.
