Board Game Arena

Mythicals is a tactical, risk-taking card-collecting game for two players. In this universe, each celestial creature holds the mastery of an element: water, air, earth, or fire. Study these creatures before the sun rises and learn all their secrets because the player with the greatest mastery of the elements at the end of the game wins!
On your turn, collect cards representing the same elements by drawing three cards from the pile (and placing the remaining ones into the market) or by picking them from the market. If you can, discard a collection corresponding to a favor token (same elements + flush, different elements, same value...) and take the token.
 
This all-new 2 player only game from Repos Production (7 Wonders, Just One, etc) is not available in stores yet BUT you can already learn it through the tutorial, and play it on Board Game Arena!

We would like to thank Alexis Allard & Joan Dufour, the game designers, and the team from Repos for their authorization to host this game on our platform.
Also, lots of kudos to Jonathan2004 who coded this one for Board Game Arena.

It's fast-paced, offers a lot of choices, and is played in 12 minutes: No need to argue more, you definitely should try this one!
 
That's your Wednesday release,
until next week, take care and play fair!
 

Methinks you forgot somebody.

I wish that stuff like Rules Summaries were always finished before the games had a full release.

Wow, this game looks great!

I have taken ownership of tournament creation and will be creating 2 tournaments per month. Links to the first 2 tournaments here:

Starting Feb 26 at 14:00 UTC - https://boardgamearena.com/tournament?id=363460 -Swiss with top cut. Try and get 4-1 record or better to advance to single elimination finals. This is the closest to a "Double Elimination" tournament that we can make on BGA with the current tournament settings. The idea is to be a bit more forgiving than a single elimination tournament and allow players to stay in the tournament for longer with at least 5 matches.

Starting March 5 at 14:00 UTC https://boardgamearena.com/tournament?id=363473 - 6x6 Double Robin meaning 6 groups of 6 players with round robin for both stages, 1 player from each group advances so stage 2 is also 6 players. This is a busier, more intensive tournament than the Swiss since you get 5 games starting at once (but long game duration), but I've kept the group size reasonable to make it more popular and minimize players feeling overwhelmed with too many games!

Feel free to DM me for an invite if you are under 100 Elo.

I strive to make enjoyable tournaments for everyone so we can grow player communities on BGA. I treat tournament creation seriously, trying to ensure great settings so everyone has a good time, similar to inviting all of you to my house for a board game night. I'm always open to suggestions for future tournaments. My tournaments each had their own custom icon so players can identify them easily in the list and know the expected settings at a glance. 2 player tournaments will be 1-2 month long in duration and hosted monthly so newer players can always hop in and join the community!

I use to think the same, but you can't say that! Ned is always

Just a shadow of his former self.

"Rules Summaries" is a community-made wiki so BGA does not really have any control on it

Some (many?) developers make the rules summary page when they release games into alpha, however. It can be done even before the game becomes public.
