Two rivals summon bizarre hybrid creatures to battle for survival while trying to hijack the opponent’s best monsters with psychic mind control.

Gameplay

Reduce your opponent’s life to zero by playing creature cards, attacking with them, and triggering their special powers. The tension is in timing: every strong play might be stolen, so you’re constantly weighing bait, bluffs, and when to commit your best threats.
