What this is
In Discworld: Ankh-Morpork, players control the comic fantasy city peopled by iconic characters menaced by wizard magic. The action takes place on a map of Ankh-Morpork, with players trying to place minions and buildings through card play. Each player has a secret personality with specific victory conditions, which means that they're not sure exactly what the other players need to do in order to win.
