Hello everyone,
It is with joy and excitement that the entire Yeast Games team unveils its new gaming creation: Moonlight Brewers Triple Fermentation. Following the Print&Play version of the game released during the first lockdown, we have chosen to keep only the basic concept, while completely rethinking the gameplay to offer a more strategic, more dynamic, and above all, more entertaining experience.
Kickstarter campaign launch date: May 29, 2024
Synopsis: Every night, a dark veil envelops the forest of Hopwolf. The echoes of terrifying roars, war chants, and the clinking of beer glasses resonate and mix with the rustling of the trees. At the heart of this nocturnal theater, where only the brave dare venture, stands the sanctuary of the Monks of Hopwolf. Guided by ancient devotion and an insatiable thirst, these secluded heroes dedicate themselves body and soul to their ultimate quest: to brew the most enchanting elixir the world has known, beer. Their secret? Were-animals blood, a rather uncooperative ingredient, to be frank...
In Moonlight Brewers, you take on the role of Trappist monks competing to create the supreme beer. But this challenge can only be met on a full moon night, when the werewolf animals are out. Both predators and prey, these creatures represent a real danger, but also a vital component for the concoction of the much-coveted brew.
To brave the night and concoct this exceptional beer, you will need to develop breathtaking strategies, while counting on a bit of luck.
Gameplay: In turn, each player can perform one of the five available actions: move, gather ingredients, equip, hunt werewolves, or attack other monks. Actions can be carried out simply to obtain lower-quality resources or more diligently for better benefits. However, being diligent generates noise and requires rolling a die. Our cunning monks can influence the outcome of their dice by consuming beer, at the risk of becoming clumsier and noisier.
Noise attracts the various werewolves, who will not hesitate to attack you fiercely.
Campaign: Moonlight Brewers Triple Fermentation also includes a campaign of 14 scenarios (10-12H of gameplay) that will take you from moon to moon in search of the title of the best brewer of the year. Inspired by the live-action role-playing games of the Yucca Company, this adventure promises twists and surprises.
Players: 1-6 (note that we recommend focusing on the campaign for duo and especially solo play, where you will face "monk-automatons")
Duration: 60 minutes
Mechanics: resource collection, confrontation, dice rolling.
Rating: Complexity +; Strategy and Luck ++; Fun, depth, and replayability +++
Estimated cost: a base pledge (containing everything needed to play standard games and also a campaign), three supplements (mini rules and mini-campaign), and a very advantageous all-in that will only be matched by the early bird (during the first 48 hours of the campaign, we add a surprise to the all-in).
