About this expansion
Shadowrift: Eve of the Sickle Moon is a cooperative deck-building expansion for 1–6 players, with a 120-minute play time, in which heroes defend a town against a horde of monsters during a high-stakes fantasy siege.
This expansion introduces two dangerous monster factions. The Lycanthrope faction brings were-animals in many shapes and sizes. These creatures can bite villagers and spread their curse, while becoming more powerful when the full moon rises.
The Harrowood faction is a forest twisted into a violent hatred of humanity by the opening of the Shadowrifts. Its monsters can create Overgrowths, which empower the faction and accelerate the town’s destruction. Together, these threats add new pressure to the heroes’ struggle to protect their home.
To help fight back, Eve of the Sickle Moon adds new heroic powers and defensive options to the Shadowrift experience:
- Four new hero cards with druidic power
- Four new hero cards with Elementalist powers
- Three new villagers
- A new Wall
Players must work cooperatively to face the expanding monster threat, manage the dangers brought by cursed villagers and Overgrowths, and defend the town before it is destroyed. The expansion’s opposing factions offer distinct challenges: lycanthropes spread their curse and draw strength from the full moon, while the Harrowood intensifies the siege through its growth.
With its new factions, hero cards, villagers, and Wall, Shadowrift: Eve of the Sickle Moon expands the heroic adventure and gives cooperative players fresh dangers to overcome in a fantasy town under siege.
