Neo-Hunt 2 (2001)

Summary: Neo-Hunt 2 is a round-based board and card game for 3-6 players. Each player controls a single "varan" (a bio-engineered humanoid reptile). The goal of the game is to kill other players' "varan" and to eliminate "trooper" units (game tokens). Play continues until only one "varan" remains or until all "trooper" units are destroyed. If multiple "varan" units remain then scores are tallied to determine the winner. Setup: The game board is randomly created by assembling it from hexagonal sector tiles. Players are given one random "varan" card and one "trooper" card; "varan" units are initially deployed in a hidden state. "Trooper" units are then places sequentially on the board. Players then draw a full hand of action cards and play begins. Game Play: Play proceeds in "rounds" during which each player gets a turn. Each player's "varan" can make an attack upon a unit it can see, either "varan" or "trooper". Successful attacks deal damage (which may be insufficient to remove a unit). Destroyed units are removed and scored. Players also draw special cards and may play them, taking whatever action is described. After the players have moved all "trooper" units then move or fire at visible "varan" units following a basic rule. User Comments: The game is print-and-play and published for free access via HTML. Components and rules are downloadable in PDF format. Color printing is recommended.
