Uncover a hidden witch or unleash an ancient ritual in Pagan: The Fate of Roanoke, an asymmetric 2 player strategy card game set in colonial America in 1587. One player becomes the Witch, secretly working towards a powerful ritual while the other takes the role of the Witch Hunter, determined to expose her identity before it is too late.
 
Nine villagers could be hiding the truth, but only one is the Witch. As the Witch Hunter, investigate the village, gather allies, secure strategic locations as well as piece together clues to narrow the suspects. Every discovery brings you closer to the truth, though the Witch is constantly working to keep her identity concealed.
 
As the Witch, collect precious Secrets needed to complete the ritual of renaturation. Brew potent potions, strengthen your Familiar, cast Enchantments plus Charms, then manipulate the village while avoiding suspicion. Your greatest weapon is deception, since every villager could become part of your carefully constructed plan.
 
Each player has a unique 50-card deck, giving both sides their own arsenal of abilities, strategies plus surprises. Action pawns placed on active villagers let you draw cards, gain Influence plus trigger crucial effects, creating a tense contest where every move can reveal valuable information or hide it.
 
The result is a deeply interactive deduction game where neither player can rely on the same approach every time. Build your strategy carefully, read your opponent’s behaviour, then strike when the perfect opportunity appears.
 
With asymmetric gameplay, hidden identities, deduction, deck building plus a richly atmospheric historical setting, Pagan: The Fate of Roanoke is an excellent strategy board game for two players who enjoy psychological battles with plenty of tension.
