You've finally found a way in to the home of the spirits and the fae, the Betwixt and Between, a tangled and uncharted web of strange places where most peculiar creatures dwell. Be wary — this land is steeped in ancient magic, and you're far from alone in here... Betwixt and Between is a strategic adventure board game for 1-4 players, mixing eerie European folklore with magical creativity and euro-inspired mechanisms. In the game, you take on the role of mystics who have found their way into this strange land to explore and harness its magical essence. Throughout the game, you will unfold your mystic's story by drafting exploration cards that determine what you discover and might encounter. You must cleverly combine card placement with character movement to create dynamic combinations in order to interact with the otherworldly beings and absorb magic. You build upon your magic weave to uphold spells that evolve your mystic with new abilities and points. Only the most cunning and skilled mystic wins the game! —description from the publisher
