Mythic Mischief Vol. II is a board game released in 2024 for 1–4 players, 45–90 minutes per game, and ages 14 and up. It was designed by Max Anderson, Austin Harrison, and Zac Dixon and its main mechanics are Variable Player Powers, Grid Movement, and Action Points.
In the standalone sequel to Mythic Mischief, you play as a faction of Mythic Manor students competing to get as many of the other students caught by the Groundskeeper as you can without getting caught yourself. The Gargoyles, Gnomes, Werewolves, and Fairies each have their own unique set of abilities to move around the board, move the other factions into the path of the Groundskeeper, and even alter the course of the Groundskeeper by moving hedge walls. Players are able to upgrade their Faction’s abilities throughout the game by collecting powerful Tomes from around the hedge maze. The winner is the first Team to score 10 Mischief Points or the Team with the most points when the Groundskeeper finishes returning all of the Tomes after lunch! —description from the publisher
