Miskatonic University: The Restricted Collection
Delve into forbidden knowledge and risk your sanity in this quick, strategic card game by Reiner Knizia!
The game is a quest an extremely dangerous quest. Dr. Henry Armitage, Chief Librarian, needs you to search the perilous Restricted Collection for fragments of lore from among the grimoires to recover pieces of a particular sigil.
Miskatonic University: The Restricted Collection lasts five rounds. Each round continues until no one is left in the library, with each player having left voluntarily or having been expelled. Basic play consists of taking turns to select a library card and placing it face up on your player mat. Library cards come in three types:
- Sigil pieces: Three pieces make a set and earn a lore card. Picking up a duplicate leads to expulsion unless you can use your defenses.
- Grimoire fragments: Three pieces make a set and earn a lore card. Picking up a duplicate leads to expulsion unless you can use your defenses.
- Graduate students: Collecting four allows you to re-use one of your defense cards.
Players also have a chance to win black or red sanity cards, which increase their score. The game ends after the fifth round, and the player with the highest total score wins.
