Rival cryptozoologists scour a remote wilderness to be the first to pinpoint the hiding place of a legendary creature.

Gameplay

To find the Cryptid first, you place question or search markers on map hexes, asking opponents whether a hex fits their private clue and occasionally making a final location guess. Every move risks revealing too much while you try to read others’ tells and race them to the solution.
