Overview: The Midnight Queen is dead… As her kingdom weeps, the Queen’s dying command was to invoke the Rule By Midnight: a trial of combat and guile, where the Princesses of Twelvefold meet in secret to battle and scheme against one another. Each Princess wields unique tactics to battle for the Midnight Court, but as the clock strikes 12, only one shall wear the crown. 

Gameplay:

• Use your cards to scheme, brawl, and cast your way to victory!
• Six unique styles of play.
• Pledge your loyalty to others to hedge your bets!

Inside: The centerpiece of this game is a stunning Clocktower that tracks turns, offers cards to buy, and rolls your dice! It spins to face each player on their turn. Nearly 200 cards are themed to your specific Princess, with additional Bazaar cards (75) available to customize your deck. Tokens, trackers, boards, and other cards make gameplay easy to track even when things are getting heated.
