Description

Baba Yaga is the board game of Russian folklore and heroism. Extensively researched to be true to Russian folklore it is epic in scale, but simple and fun to play with an atmosphere of high adventure. With up to six players, two main play modes (cooperative or competitive), a solo play option and variant multiplayer rules, there is endless replayability.

During the game players take on the role of one of six heroic characters, adventuring in the wilds of a fantastical medieval Russia sculpted by the legends and folklore of the land. As you play the game, you are attempting to complete one of six heroic quests by traveling around the board and having encounters based on Russian myths while also dealing with Baba Yaga's perilous minions. As you have these encounters, you will gather items and allies that will help you by granting you advantages or bonuses to your statistics. You will also gain reputation as you adventure, but be careful, the great witch Baba Yaga doesn’t care for uppity heroes and soon you’ll be fighting her off as well as dealing with your individual quest.

In order to win in competitive play, you must either be the first to complete your quest, or have the most reputation when the game ends. In cooperative play, all of the players must complete their quests or manage to defeat Baba Yaga before time runs out.
