Osprey Games has announced that it will produce an English-language version of designer Kuro’s cooperative card game The Ravens of Thri Sahashri, with release planned for May 2016.
The Ravens of Thri Sahashri was originally released by Japon Brand in 2013, and proved to be a hit with fans and critics. This unusual cooperative card game is for only two players. One player assumes the role of a young woman trapped in a coma while the other is her psychic friend who must enter her dreams and rescue her memories from soul-devouring ravens. Communication between the players is limited to the play of the cards in this game of deduction.
The Osprey Games edition will include the same artwork as the original Japanese game, created by Hanbaagu, Rapan, and Romannu, but the redesigned version will be printed on oversized cards and packaged in an embossed slipcase. Another new element for the English version is the addition of three sealed envelopes, which players are instructed only to open after completing certain conditions during the game, in a manner similar to “Legacy” style games.
MSRP is $22.00.
