About the game
In Recreo Arcano, the House of the Horneros compete against the House of the Capybaras in an underground game to take the director's cup, get all the potions or leave the rivals out of games. For that we will launch spell cards coordinating with our team without the rivals deciphering our plans. We will move the castle so that the modular board of cards can be adapted to our objectives, we will have duels with rival magicians and during the same game we will discover new powerful spells to show which is the winning house. Games that were distributed through preorder and June 2023 Ludoty Box include Actitudes sospechosas inside.
