Game description from the publisher:
In Mice and Mystics players take on the
roles of those still loyal to the king – but to escape the clutches of
Vanestra, they have been turned into mice! Play as cunning field mice
who must race through a castle now twenty times larger than before. The
castle would be a dangerous place with Vanestra's minions in control,
but now countless other terrors also await heroes who are but the size
of figs. Play as nimble Prince Colin and fence your way past your foes,
or try Nez Bellows, the burly smith. Confound your foes as the wizened
old mouse Maginos, or protect your companions as Tilda, the castle's
former healer. Every player will have a vital role in the quest to warn
the king, and it will take careful planning to find Vanestra's weakness
and defeat her.
Mice and Mystics is a cooperative adventure game in which
the players work together to save an imperiled kingdom. They will face
countless adversaries such as rats, cockroaches, and spiders, and of
course the greatest of all horrors: the castle's housecat, Brodie. Mice and Mystics
is a boldly innovative game that thrusts players into an ever-changing,
interactive environment, and features a rich storyline that the players
help create as they play the game. The Cheese System allows players to
horde the crumbs of precious cheese they find on their journey, and use
it to bolster their mice with grandiose new abilities and overcome
seemingly insurmountable odds.
Mice and Mystics will provide any group of friends with an
unforgettable adventure they will be talking about for years to come –
assuming they can all squeak by...
