About this board game

Mythic Mischief is a competitive library game for 1–4 players with an approximately 90-minute play time. You play as a faction of Mythic Manor students, trying to get other students caught by the Tomekeeper while avoiding capture yourself.

Each faction has its own unique abilities for moving around the board and moving other factions into the Tomekeeper’s path. Factions can also alter the Tomekeeper’s course by moving bookshelves, creating opportunities to score Mischief Points while changing the danger around the library.

Throughout the game, players can collect powerful Tomes from around the library to upgrade their faction’s abilities. These upgrades add new possibilities to the competition as students maneuver, redirect the Tomekeeper, and attempt to catch their opponents without being caught in return.

  • Play as a faction of Mythic Manor students.
  • Use unique faction abilities to move yourself and other factions.
  • Move bookshelves to alter the Tomekeeper’s course.
  • Collect Tomes to upgrade your faction’s abilities.

The game ends when a team scores 10 Mischief Points or when the Tomekeeper finishes returning all of the Tomes after lunch. The team with the most points at that time wins, making every movement and upgrade part of a race to create mischief before the library’s routine is restored.

Released in 2022, Mythic Mischief combines faction-specific abilities, board movement, scoring, and a shifting Tomekeeper route in a contest to turn the library’s rules against your rivals.
