Description

--- "Ultimate Werewolf Artifacts" is a mega-expansion adding secret Artifact cards with special powers, introducing new strategic layers to Werewolf games. Key mechanics include: - *Artifact assignment* Each player receives a unique, secret Artifact card alongside their role card. - *Power activation* Players can reveal and use Artifact powers at any time during the game. - *Varied effects* Artifacts provide direct benefits (e.g., Cloak of the Prince), affect others (e.g., Cudgel of the Old Hag), reveal information (e.g., Ring of Truth), delay benefits (e.g., Claw of the Werewolf), or force activations (e.g., Ruby of Kismet). - *Strategic depth* Unique artifact combinations per game enable diverse tactics and replayability. Ultimate Werewolf Artifacts, the first mega-expansion compatible with Ultimate Werewolf and other versions, modernizes gameplay via ancient artifacts. Each player holds a secret Artifact card with a unique power, activatable by reveal at any point. Powers vary: personal advantages, impacts on others, player information, delayed effects, or compelled activations. This overlays profound strategic and tactical dimensions, ensuring every game features distinct artifact mixes for heightened variability and depth. ---
