The witcher crouched down, noticing a fresh track in the undergrowth. His intuition was right. Devil. Quite big. He reached down to his belt to make sure the Devil's Puffball firecracker was in place. Then he took a small vial out of his bag and uncorked it. With practiced precision he applied special oil to the blade. In a fight with a beast that can kill both rider and horse with a single blow of its paw, all holds are allowed.
The Witcher: The Old World - On the Trail of Monsters is an expansion that introduces several new game variants that can be used separately or simultaneously. Players will have the opportunity to take on the role of a witcher from the Manticore School with a unique ability – tolerance to elixirs. 40 advanced action cards provide interesting effects and allow you to create even more powerful combinations. The Witcher arsenal will also be joined by bomb and mutagen cards, which will allow you to gain an advantage when hunting monsters. This is a valuable bonus, especially since with this addition we can equip monsters with special attacks and weaknesses.
It is an adventure board game that takes players on a journey through a fantasy world full of dangers, arcane magic, dark secrets and extraordinary places just waiting to be discovered. The game's action takes place in the Witcher universe beloved by fans, many years before the events of the saga of Geralt of Rivia, at a time when a plague of monsters devoured the Continent. Only witchers were able to counteract it – professional assassins trained to fight creatures hostile to humans.
