Fairy Meat is a board game released in 2000 for 2–100 players, 60 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. It was designed by Sky Leaton and its main mechanics are Dice Rolling.
Fairy Meat is Kenzer & Company's acclaimed actual-size miniatures wargame of cannibal fairy combat. The once peaceful fairy folk have become addicted to fairy flesh, and their world has plummeted into violent anarchy. Players control a warband of bloodthirsty fairies, hunting and killing for the flesh and blood of their own kin. Fairy Meat is a very multi-player game, for two or more mature gamers who want something different. The full-color rulebook includes cardstock fairy status cards, counters, and stand-up fairy miniatures; a deck of cards and a ruler are all that's required for a lifetime of fairy-butchering fun! Expanded by: Fairy Meat: Clockwork Stomp Fairy Meat: Sugar and Vice Fairy Meat: Wicked Things Fairy Meat: WAR
Fairy Meat supports 2–100 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Fairy Meat is 60 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Fairy Meat for ages 12 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Fairy Meat has a complexity rating of 1.6 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
