Curses & Covens is an all verses one card game where three or more friendly towns face off against the witch hunter. One player plays as the witch hunter and wins by capturing witches.
The player playing the witch hunter will be trying to keep track of where the cards are and pushing their luck to try and collect them. The other players play as the towns and are on the side of the witches. They are playing a game of bluffing and silent cooperation as they try to outsmart the witch hunter.
The game plays through four main phases. The census, the arrival, the journey, and the hunt. These repeat until one side has won. The census phase is the only time where the towns players are able to communicate freely. During the other phases communication is limited. The hunt phase involves the witch hunter player drawing cards blindly from other players hands, trying to capture witches and avoid rituals.
- Objective: The townsfolk players win by forming a coven of three matching witches in one player's hand, or if the witch hunter collects two ritual cards. The witch hunter wins by capturing any five witches.
- Communication: Communication is a key element of the game. The townsfolk can only communicate freely during the "Census" phase at the beginning of each round. The witch hunter listens to this discussion, adding a layer of strategy and deduction.
- Phases: The game is played over four main phases that repeat until a winner is determined
