About the game
Monster Slayers of Slawia is a fast-paced, fiercely competitive card game for 2 to 5 players set in a Slavic fantasy world. Become the leader of a legendary Hunting House and send your monster slayers to the troubled realms of the Boarderlands! Visit over 25 unique locales and hunt over ten monster types! Players alternate playing monster slayer cards from their hands and monsters from the monster lair. A sole player stands a poor chance of defeat the monsters alone, so they must use their wits and join others, while ensuring they receive the majority of the spoils (points). Monster Slayers of Slawia features over one hundred illustrations and a deep unique Slavic theme in the vein of the Witcher video game series. —description from the designer
