The dark phantom, known as Father Time, grows weaker by the day as his reign nears its end. Lead one of the four ancient abstracts, known as the Time Whisperers, through the ages to seize his throne before your opponents do. The Time Whisperers is a competitive game for two to four players with a duration of about forty-five minutes and ages ten and up. (Youth variant: competitive game, 20 minutes, ages 7+). Having to navigate a tight area control efficiency puzzle with hand management and game breaking asymmetrical player powers, you will need to consider both strategy and tactics to be successful. Play action cards to move, strengthen, and invert your Time Whisperers, all the while applying special powers to radically bend the rules of the game in your favor. Decide whether to use your dark strength to control the phantom, or switch to gold strength to increase your future potential. After four rounds of plotting deception and retribution, will a new ruler of the Eternity emerge! —description from the designer
