About

Shadow Riddler

Features
Read full description

Shadow Riddler is a multiplayer role-playing game in which players take on different roles and reason, vote, and more to find out who the werewolves are and destroy them. Before the game begins, each player is randomly selected a character, including guards, civilians, seers, vampires, and more. Werewolves and vampires are the villainous characters in the game, who have to carry out assassinations on other players at night, while other players have to try their best to find out the werewolves and destroy them. The game is divided into two phases: daytime and nighttime. During the day, reasoning can be used to try to figure out who the werewolves are. During the night, the werewolves will choose a target to assassinate while the other players try to protect themselves from being assassinated.

VIGRID — where the final battle of Norse legend is fought. Two factions clash on a sacred battlefield: the Aesir gods and the Jotnar giants. Each turn you play a movement card to advance your warriors — but the cards change every round, and your opponent sees them too. Every game deals a fresh hand from 19 mythological cards, so no two battles are alike. HOW TO PLAY Move one of your pieces using one of your two cards. Capture your opponent's Master — or march your own Master to their throne — to win. Games last 5–15 minutes. The rules fit on one screen; the strategy runs deep. 19 CARDS OF NORSE LEGEND Each card bears the name and movement pattern of a creature or force from the Eddas — Fenrir, Sleipnir, the Valkyrie, Jörmungandr, Huginn, and more. The card you play passes to your opponent, so every move reshapes both armies' options. FEATURES • Solo play against AI — four difficulty levels from Beginner to Hard • Pass & Play — two players, one device, two modes: pass the device between turns or play side by side • Interactive tutorial — learn in minutes • Full card gallery — browse all 19 cards with movement diagrams • Game replay — step through any completed game move by move • Undo support in solo play • Resign at any time • No ads. No in-app purchases. Free. DESIGNED FOR IPAD AND IPHONE Vigrid adapts to any screen — portrait or landscape, iPhone or iPad. The stone-textured board and hand-crafted card art bring the world of Norse mythology to life. Pure strategy — no luck beyond the opening deal.
