Micro Medusa is a 2 player competitive drafting, tile building and tile-revealing game. Players can be The Mighty Medusa, trying to extend their serpentine tress and defeat the intruding Champion. Or be the Champion, who is charged with using their equipment and cunning wit to anticipate Medusa’s next move without being turned into stone. Players play a tile from their drafted hand onto the field. Medusa plays tiles in face down, hidden from the champion, and the champion places a responding tile face up adjacent to that tile. Medusa will then reveal the tile in order to resolve what happens. The outcome could tip the scale!
