About the game
Twisted Cryptids is a card game from Unstable Games, designed by Ramy Badie (2025). It plays 2–4 players in 0–60 minutes, for ages 10+. BoardGameGeek players rate it 6.7 out of 10 and call it medium-light (2.1 / 5 weight).
It’s so hard to feel seen as a Cryptid these days. In this easy-to-learn strategy game, you’ll navigate your love-hate relationship with humans and outwit your fellow Cryptids to earn your status as a true legend. As hikers, hunters, and researchers scatter across the wilderness hoping to catch a glimpse of you, you’ll stage elaborate hoaxes, plant perfect decoys, and lurk discreetly in the shadows to build up your myth.
You might even expose your true self once in a while, but be warned: vulnerability can come at a price.
Ages 10+
2-4 players
60 minutes play time
