Asmodee USA will release Mekhane, a storytelling card game by Cranio Creations, into the U.S. hobby channel in March.  

In Mekhane, players take on the roles of Gods and use tale cards to craft a story involving the character cards in play. The story is divided into chapters (rounds), and fate decides who lives and dies at the end of each chapter based on the numbers on destiny cards. The winning god (players) is the one with the last character standing.

The game box comes with 7 Destiny cards, 15 Character cards, 15 Location cards, 15 Danger cards, and 106 Tale cards. This game is for three to eight players, ages 14 and up, plays in 30 minutes, and will retail for $20.00.

Asmodee USA will also release Pakal, a real-time sliding-puzzle game by Cranio Creations, into U.S. trade on February 12 (see "Asmodee USA Will Release 'Pakal' for U.S. Trade").
