L'Ankou is a cardgame for 2-6 players that plays in about 20 minutes. Your village, made up of players' houses, forms a circle in the middle of the table. Unfortunately for you, the Ankou is lurking nearby. You've got just nine cards to trick the Ankou and send him to your neighbours. Choose a card in secret. Then, all players reveal their cards at the same time and resolve them one by one. Some will make the Ankou move backwards or forwards, others will stop him... the Ankou will move from house to house, perhaps one of yours... If so he'll carry off everyone living under your roof... leaving the house empty. The game ends when the Ankou has enough souls in his cart. —description from the publisher
