Coven*

The solstice approaches, bringing swirling darkness in the night sky over a field. As one of five witches, you perform incantations to vie for earthly supremacy and seek the protection of five goddesses. Gather information, forge alliances, and use your wits to secure your dominance, as serving your goddesses well can lead to rewards against those who defy them.

Players embody witches serving either light or darkness in a game of secret alignments for 3-5 participants. The game features simple mechanics with five possible actions, as players navigate a circular board with a rotating inner pentagram that alters strategy each turn. The game presents a strategic challenge: the side with the most points claims victory, but within the winning side, only the witch with the highest score prevails, encouraging careful resource allocation.
