Pagan: Fate of Roanoke is an expandable deduction card game set in colonial America in 1587.

At the heart of this asymmetric game is a witch’s struggle against a witch hunter. While the witch strives to complete a renaturation ritual, the hunter tries to find her true identity among nine villagers. Each turn the two players use their action pawns on active villagers to draw cards, play cards and gain influence. Each player has their own variable deck of fifty cards; with these cards the witch can brew powerful potions, improve the abilities of her familiars and cast enchantments and spells, while the witch hunter recruits allies, claims strategic locations and relentlessly investigates the villagers.

As the witch, your goal is to gather enough secrets to perform a ritual so potent that the whole region falls under your enchantment and Mother Nature reclaims the island. As the hunter, you gather all the allies and support you can muster to bring the witch to justice before her fatal ritual becomes reality.

The prototype won the Danish design award Otto at Fastaval for best game in 2018.
