The Vampire, the Elf and the Cthulhu

The Vampire, the Elf and the Cthulhu (VEC) is a strategic card game where players represent writers who are trying to complete a novel together. VEC is a "light game made for gamers", not a storytelling game. Players must acquire cards through an auction system. Cards represent the writer ideas (protagonists, characters, events, places, items, encounters). Cards have special powers and players activate them to interact with other players (move cards, turn cards, refill energy, etc). Aim of the game is move specific cards to a special zone of the table game area, called NOVEL area. Cards must be placed there in the right sequence and type/color: each player has a different objective with a different sequence and colors, so as the result will be identical/similar to player objective, victory points will be scored. Card powers can be combined resulting in a huge number of play combinations creating many possible strategies.
