Who Will Tell Your Story in Disney Villainous: Darkness Brewing?

In Disney Villainous: Darkness Brewing, players can re-tell their favorite stories from the point of view of some favorite Disney Villains: the Sanderson Sisters from Disney's Hocus Pocus, Maleficent from Disney's Sleeping Beauty, the Evil Queen from Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and Ursula from Disney's The Little Mermaid. Each player races to be the first to achieve their own devious objectives while leveraging unique abilities and thwarting their opponents with Villain-scheming strategy. This new box also includes special movers with an alternate, gradient finish.

The heart of gameplay is simple. Move your Villain's sculpted mover, use actions to play your cards, and draw from your opponents' Fate deck to disrupt their carefully made plans with meddling heroes. But as in all Villainous games, each villain's objective is unique. As Ursula, you must have the Trident and the Crown at your lair. As The Evil Queen you must defeat Snow White. As Maleficent, you must have at least one Curse at each location in the realm. As The Sanderson Sisters, you will need to defeat a Hero with the Life Potion.

"For our established players and fans of Disney Villainous, our standard, two-Villain, and occasional single-villain offerings are the perfect way to grow their collections," said Brenna Noonan, Games Product Manager for Ravensburger North America. "New players, though, they want to have a few more options to choose from when they first dive into the game. The introduction of a popular character like The Sanderson Sisters ahead of the game's tenth anniversary is the perfect time for us to launch a bigger box of Villains so new fans of Disney's Hocus Pocus can buy one product and start playing immediately."
