About the game
Behold the Voodoo Ranger x Heroes of Barcadia Game Expansion. In the alleys of Brewtown, where the air is thick with the scent of hops, roams the mysterious Voodoo Ranger. This skeletal brewmaster, adorned with goggles, a feathered hat, and a bandolier brimming with IPAs, is the epitome of undead cool. His journey began in the cryptic cellars of the Voodoo Brewery, where he experimented in hopmancy — conjuring IPAs that are as bold and hazy as his sense of humor.
