Disney Villainous: Perfectly Wretched is a standalone expansion for the popular Disney Villainous game, in which players take on the roles of Disney villains and attempt to carry out their evil schemes. In this edition, you can play as Cruella de Vil (101 Dalmatians), Mother Gothel (Tangled), or Pete (Steamboat Willie). The expansion was released in 2020 and can be played on its own or combined with other games in the Villainous series.
Instead of playing as heroes, you take on the role of a villain, with each character having a unique objective that reflects their story from a Disney film. Cruella hunts Dalmatian puppies, Mother Gothel tries to keep Rapunzel under her influence, and Pete works to complete secret goals inspired by his classic cartoon adventures. Each player has their own realm, deck of cards, and gameplay mechanics that faithfully capture the personality of their chosen villain.
The core gameplay revolves around moving your character between locations on your player board. At each location, you can perform various actions such as playing cards, gaining power, moving characters, or interfering with your opponents. To win, you must fulfill your villain's unique objective.
A standout feature of the game is the Fate system, which allows players to send heroes and other obstacles from an opponent's story into their realm, making their path to victory more difficult. This creates plenty of player interaction and leads to interesting tactical decisions.
Disney Villainous: Perfectly Wretched is an excellent choice for anyone who enjoys devising wicked plans, loves Disney stories, and appreciates strategic games with strong thematic immersion. 👠🖤
