Description

Dominate the field, crush your foes, and pierce the veil before other aspirants can consolidate their power. Your fiend has newly risen, fresh and eager to do your bidding. What will you pursue? Knowledge of the abyss, a path to another plane of reality, or dominion over this mortal realm? Set against a backdrop of Art Deco and Art Nouveau styling, Occultis places you in the role of an occult aspirant, playable solo or competitively with up to eight players. Players must evolve their monster, upgrading its powers as it levels, while gathering relics, arcane knowledge, and ritual components to achieve victory. Beware, this is not a passive world. Your opponents will actively seek to undermine your progress using their own fiends, attacking, stealing, scrying, mutating, and employing other tactics to gain the upper hand. Occultis is a game of strategy, not needless complexity. Hours spent on setup and rules explanation? Not here. Occultis is easy to learn but rewards forward-thinking strategies. Think you're pulling ahead? Your opponent might just be waiting for the perfect moment. —description from the designer
