The Witcher card game is based on the computer game The Witcher, each player should defeat as many dangerous monsters as possible and gain fame. To achieve this you must use the characters from the computer game and their special characteristics and effects and also hire Geralt the Witcher and send him on possibly lethal missions.
The game features cards for attack, monsters, characters, Geralt, events and objects. In your turn you chose a character, use its special characteristics and actions, bid for the Witcher, fight monsters, bid for events and end your turn. After using the special effect of a character you can draw gold from the bag or draw an open or face-down attack card. The actual fight against a monster in the front row of the display is Geralt’s job, he uses the cards given to him by the player who did win the bid for Geralt – to win the fight you need to display the card combination depicted on the monster card. If a monster is killed, you receive the card, the stated points of fame and a bonus according to the card text. Event cards are important for a successful monster chase. One must win them also in an auction, they yield gold, jokers and other useful objects. If a player successfully fights his forth monster, he ends the game. All players add their points of fame on their monster cards and event cards, the player with the highest total wins the game.
The Witcher is an attractive card game with a standard fantasy topic, the graphics have been taken from the computer game. All friends of the genre should have no problem with cards and rules in English.
