Long Description:
Experience Shakespeare’s play "The Tragedy of Othello" by progressing the tale according to the evil plan of villainous Iago! Control Iago as the lead player in Acts I - IV to increase your opportunities to play script cards for points. Play staging cards to disrupt the flow of your opponents. Script cards played as the other characters score points while collecting character tokens to be used to disrupt play in future turns. Collect mind tokens worth points at the end or use them as currency to enable the ‘intrigue’ action that lets you swap cards. Collect and hold on to the handkerchief for points. Collect and play spotlight tokens to block your opponents. Control Othello in Act V so you can strike the final, tragic blow. Play your own way yet be aware that your opponents will do their best to thwart you and to steal your victory points! No Shakespeare knowledge required.
