Cool Mini or Not has announced that it will once again partner with Sweet Games to publish the English version of Waka Tanka in America. Waka Tanka is a light bluffing card game designed by Bruno Faidutti (Citadels, Mission: Red Planet). In the game, players are Native American shamans who try to conjure spirits by playing incantation cards face down. Other players can call their bluff and catch them in their lies.
If you're interested in this light bluffing game with great art (the game is illustrated by David Cochard (Dungeon Lords, Dungeon Petz), one of my favorite board game artists), read the full press release below:
