Rules

  • For each game, Wonders are distributed to players randomly. Each player may choose to play on the Day side or Night side of the Wonder they receive.
  • Each game has a time limit of 45 minutes. At the end of this time, the game immediately ends and points are counted.
  • Players manage their own table and the preparation of their game, as well as final scoring. Players are responsible for checking setup (shuffling cards, number of coins received, etc). There is no recourse if a game begins with an invalid setup.
  • At the end of the game, all players at the table complete and verify the results sheet. The winner submits it to the organizers.
  • At any time, participants may ask a judge for a rules clarification
  • Each player may have a rules summary or documents that they think will be helpful during the game. They can also take notes. Their opponents cannot look at these notes or documents. The size of these notes and documents can be no larger than an A4/US Letter sheet.
  • Judges have the final say when resolving rule misunderstandings, conflicts, cheating accusations, unsportsmanlike conduct, or any other dispute related to the tournament.

Play The Designers! Popes & Plagues!

We’re incredibly excited to not only host fun Learn-to-Play events for this new game, but also to welcome one of its creators in person to help teach!

The Creators

Tray and Jennifer Green are the creative minds behind this fantastic new game, and Tray himself will be joining us to teach it! The Green family has a long-standing passion for CCGs, tabletop games, and roleplaying games—something they’ve enjoyed together for years.

They’ve channeled that shared passion into designing games of their own, driven by the belief that “families that game together, stay together.” Their love for innovative mechanics and engaging design shines through in their work, resulting in experiences that are fun, unique, and built to bring people together.

Creator

You may recognize the name Plague & Pestilence, a medieval-themed game originally created by Tray Green in 1993. If you’ve had the chance to play it, you’ll notice its strong influence on their newest title, Popes & Plagues. The Greens have shared that, throughout development, they worked to stay true to the spirit of the original while introducing updated mechanics and a fresh, new design.

Be sure to find your local event and come out to support this talented, game-creating family!

Popes & Plagues

Popes & Plagues is a fast-paced card game set in the Middle Ages, filled with strategy, chaos, and a touch of dark humor. This is not just a reprint—it’s a full recreation. Classic elements have been reimagined, and new content has been added to create an exciting, updated experience. Build your village, wage war against your enemies, lead holy crusades, grow your population—and prepare for the plague!

Plague & Pestilence

A light, fast-paced card game centered on the rise—and inevitable fall—of medieval towns. During the “Prosperity” phase, players grow their populations by building improvements or cleverly stealing resources from their opponents. But prosperity never lasts for long…

The game’s artwork, inspired by medieval woodcuts, features striking imagery of the Grim Reaper, adding a darkly thematic touch to the experience.
