When the quarantine ended, the people of the medieval villages poured out into the streets to celebrate with a great feast. At the sound of joyful songs, the clinking of glasses, and the clatter of dancing feet, all manner of evil spirits and devils crawled out of their holes. Anyone they knew could be a werewolf or a ghoul. The atmosphere is unhealthy! Now ghouls drink the blood of babes in the comfortable streets of your cities, devils tempt monks, and knights prepare for battle with the dragon. A new type of inhabitant has been added called UNHOLY CREATURE, these characters stand on a green background. They are mixed into the usual deck of suffering inhabitants, they can be drawn and, as usual, put into your town or into the town of your opponent. Among all sorts of evil things, two special cards, a ghost and a werewolf, have been added to the Feasts and Devils expansion. Now you can make your favorite resident immortal or turn a useless Leper into a ruthless and savage killer. With the new addition you need to: Disband all the Plague Doctors Put away the vials with the traces of epidemics Isolate the Leper Kick out all the useless peasants But don't be sad, they'll be replaced by all kinds of evil and other characters! A new holiday deck has been added. It has 13 cards. For example, the Bellethain Spring Festival requires each town to burn one of its inhabitants. The old relics in Feasts and Devils have been replaced with new Cursed Relics.
