Stage Blood

Description

In Stage Blood, you and your associates are theatrical agents, placing actors in Shakespearean plays. You will send your performers to the various popular plays of the season, hoping to win favor with the six major households, and earn renown for managing the finest actors in the land. Stage Blood is a simple card game about managing a troupe of actors, for 2 to 6 players. Each round, players choose one actor from their hand and send it out into the world, assigning it to one of the unfinished plays at the center of the table. Smaller actors act first, while larger ones act later. And there are no small parts, just small actors. The game lasts for four seasons, after which players will compare their collections of favor tokens from each of six households, earning points for placing high in each one. There are some other ways to earn bonus points as well. The player with the most points is the winner. —description from the publisher
