Focus on Creatures
In Cyclades Legendary Edition, Mythological Creatures are a key element of the game, offering unique assets to players who know how to use them to their advantage.
Find out how to acquire and use these legendary creatures!
The Rules
With the exception of Apollo, all gods give access to Mythological Creatures.
By paying the cost indicated under the card in their dedicated river on the auction board, you can take the corresponding card and apply the indicated effect.
The costs can vary from 2 to 5 gold coins, depending on the discounts linked to the temples you have built beforehand.
Most creatures have one-time immediate effects, which must be used immediately.
Some creatures are represented by a miniature, which has an effect affecting a land or sea area on the board.
This creature will remain under your control, with its effect, as long as you decide to pay its maintenance cost by discarding a Priestess card in the next Cycle. At that time, you may move this creature to a nearby area.
Creatures with immediate effect
Charon
Which allows you to exchange one of your Heroes with another available Hero,
Chimera
which allows you to play a Creature from the discard pile and then shuffle the deck and the discard pile together,
The Dryad
which steals an opponent’s Priestess,
The Harpy
which destroys an opposing Troop.
Creatures with miniatures
You will find many mythical creatures with very powerful instant effects, including:
Cerberus
the three-headed dog, which brings control of a land area from which you reap the benefits,
Medusa
the three-headed dog, which brings control of a land area from which you reap the benefits,
Minotaur
which strengthens your army significantly since its strength is equivalent to that of 2 Troops.
All these possibilities will allow you to develop the best strategies to dominate your opponents! So, are you ready to take up the challenge?
