Bestiarium pauperum, or… a bestiary for the poor. A truthful description of our native, Slavic demons. A must-have pocket incunabula for every beasts lover. Take on forest creatures, spawns of the darkest magic, and filthy creatures lurking behind a dumpster. Be careful not to involve yourself in shady business with devils and other foul demons. A path lays ahead of you, even less hospitable than before. But who cares...down with the beasts! New expansion to Beasts from the Barn expands path deck with 30 new beasts and adds 10 events highly related to Slavic culture and demonology. You'll also find here 6 new characters, 6 market cards, one blank beast card and one blank character card for you to fill in. Toss your two coins! Beasts from the Barn is a card game mixing two universes - the Witcher and Jakub Wędrowycz's world. It's a mash up between Slavic flavour and rural fantasy. All that spiced with a grain of salt, big portion of satire and beautiful illustrations. Gameplay is full of scams and tricks. Publisher pre-order bonus: every copy bought via publisher's store contains 11 cards expansion Świniopak ("Swine-pack"). —description from the publisher (translated)
