About the game
Possession: A Daemonic Card Game is a dark-fantasy, turn-based card game for one to four players. Each player takes on the role of a Daemon from below, fighting a war that has going on since time immemorial, since before Mankind arrived to these lands. Stalk the streets of the city of Ninebridges, or lurk in the countryside, ready to possess as many mortal victims as possible while chance and fate conspire against you, or possibly give you that bit of good luck that will nudge you towards triumph and power. —description from the publisher
