Village Attacks: The Horrors of the Sands

About this expansion

Village Attacks: The Horrors of the Sands is a 2018 expansion for 1–5 players with an approximately 180-minute play time. It introduces new monsters, heroes, hunters, tiles, and mechanics to the Village Attacks experience.

The expansion adds four monsters to play as: the Mummy, Djinn, Efreet, and Ghoul. They are joined by four new Town Heroes—the Djinn Trapper, Assassin, Gypsy, and Maharib—who are ready to combat them.

The Horrors of the Sands also introduces a new hunter group called the Yunfakh. These hunters are fast and agile combatants with a distinctive restriction: they cannot be attacked at range. To defeat them, you need to get up close, creating a different tactical challenge during play.
