Slugwinter Hunt

The winter rages, and the elves, practicians of magic fueled by slug creatures of dangerous power, demand the Queen Slug, to light their cities with splendorous magic for the biggest festival of the year.

A cruel Wizard, corrupted by slug-magic, is sent to hunt her, but the Queen Slug is tricky and elusive, and her captured children cry for freedom in the kingdom's towns.

A thrilling local two-player winter chase! The Wizard must catch the Slug, and the Slug must escape and gather an army to win.

Who will be the hunter, and who will be hunted?
