In Beasts & Diplomacy, players enter a world of fantastic creatures, intriguing diplomats, and ambitious traders. It is a strategic card game where every decision matters: from choosing the beasts that will join your collection to negotiating with influential characters who can grant you advantages or honor medals. Everything revolves around finding the perfect balance between risk, efficiency, and long-term vision.
Each game unfolds over three “days,” divided into phases —dawn, morning, midday, afternoon, and night— that set the pace of play. In every round you’ll select quests, recruit cards through drafting, and manage your ore resources to maintain your beasts and fulfill your scoring objectives. Interaction is constant: you’ll compete with other players for the best allies and must anticipate their moves to avoid being left behind.
At the heart of the game lies card combination and tableau building. Creatures bring strength and prestige, diplomats reward diversity, and traders provide vital resources. Choosing when to keep and when to sell can make the difference between victory and defeat. With multiple paths to scoring, every match is a fresh opportunity to try out new strategies and optimize your choices.
Designed by Mike Kribel and published by Dragon Dawn Productions, Beasts & Diplomacy delivers dynamic 25–60 minute sessions, both in competitive play and in its solo or family variant. Its blend of drafting, resource management, and set collection makes it a fresh and challenging proposal, ideal for those who enjoy efficiency games and strategic building with a strong dose of interaction.
