Living elements interweave throughout the realm. A water guardian extinguishes a roaring wildfire that leaves behind unrecognizably scorched earth. The seared avatar of that earth rises and consumes the water of a dozen seas. With infinite variations on their eternal cycle, no element can ever reign supreme.

Mysticana is a Foundation Deck: an 18-card deck that includes multiple core games using just the base cards with even more games added through small expansions. The deck features cards with 6 ranks across 3 suits (elements) which have a “rock-paper-scissors” hierarchy. While each game might make use of the deck’s design in different ways, the flexible foundation enables new games to fit in seamlessly alongside previous entries.

The base deck includes rules for three core games:

  • Nine Perils: a quick but puzzly solo game of arranging a sequence of events that will avert nine disasters.
  • Sorcerers' Showdown: a game of outplaying your opponent, calculated risks, shrinking hands, and rising chaos.
  • The Path Ahead: a light game where players take turns guessing whether what lies ahead on the path is stronger or weaker than what they’ve already encountered.
