Mythic Mischief

Mythic Mischief pits you against other factions of Mythic Manor students to get as many students caught by the Tomekeeper as possible. Different factions have unique abilities.
You can move around the Library board, place other Factions in the Tomekeeper’s path, and even move Bookshelves to change his path.
Throughout the game, players can upgrade their Faction’s abilities by collecting powerful Tomes from the library.
As soon as the Tomekeeper returns all of the Tomes after lunch, the team with the most Mischief Points wins!
