Enter a realm of arcane warfare where every spell cast could be your salvation or doom. BEHEXT challenges you to master the delicate balance between defending yourself and sacrificing your magical resources to build an ever-more-powerful arsenal of spells. As one of six distinct Battlemages, you'll start with unique magical abilities that shape your initial strategy. But the path to victory requires careful deck construction using cards from your own hand and precious willpower as currency. Each decision becomes a crucial tactical choice - do you keep that powerful defense spell in hand, or sacrifice it to acquire an even mightier enchantment? The innovative hex system creates constant player interaction as curses fly around the table, forcing you to adapt your strategy on the fly. Build your deck towards victory points through risky chaos magic, focus on depleting your opponents' resources, or master the art of negation - multiple paths to victory await the skilled spellcaster.
