Plaid Hat Games unveiled Familiar Tales, a cooperative deck-building game by Jerry Hawthorne, which will release in January 2022.

In Familiar Tales, players take on the roles of a wizard’s familiars that have been given the job of saving and raising a princess. The familiars need to find ways of keeping her alive and away from the evil forces that are pursuing her. At the same time, the princess is a child, so they need to care for her. Players build up skill decks to help them perform a variety of actions in the game, and if the princess survives, they win the game.

The game box comes with a 79-page location book, 26 miniatures, a campaign journal pad, 4 familiar cards, 4 familiar dashboards, 160 cards, a custom 12-sided die, 7 deck boxes, 90 tokens and markers, and a limited edition token holder. It is for one to four players, ages 8 and up; plays in 45 minutes and will retail for $79.95.

Plaid Hat Games also recently revealed Summoner Wars 2E Starter Set (see "'Summoner War 2E Starter Set'").
