Horns Up! – Black Deck Expansion

Description

The first expansion for Horns Up! is the BLACK DECK.

The publishers developed this expansion hand in hand with the Lacuna Coil band, asking them about the most awkward and exciting situations during their concerts around the world. The result of their tales has become a deck of cards that are extremely…heavy. For this reason, these cards are paired with the most “friendship-threatening” game mechanics.

Playing with this deck gives players the chance to unleash their wrath against a single opponent -loading them with endless debuffs- or spreading their evil ways on every opponent. This may call for revenge from your opponents, but keep headbanging and keep your Horns Up!

About Horns Up! – The Card game of Heavy Metal Fandom

Horns Up! is a party-card game set in the chaos and energy of a Lacuna Coil rock concert, where 3 to 9 players each compete to reach the front of the stage first. Players build their way forward using Path Cards, while trying to hinder opponents with Wall or Ticket Cards. As the audience shifts, any Path Cards left unoccupied are flipped when players move, altering routes and forcing everyone to adapt their strategy. With crowd dynamics, blocking moves, and opportunities to disrupt others, the race to center stage becomes a frantic mix of tactics and luck.

More than just a race, Horns Up! captures the vibe of a metal show: loud, immersive, and full of breathless moments. The game features the band members on Stage Cards, whose presence influences the crowd and shifts the gameplay.

Designed with feedback from thousands of concert-goers, Horns Up! aims to replicate the electrifying atmosphere of live music, with “friendship-threatening actions” which test how far players will go to be first at the barrier. It’s fast, fun, and built for fans both of games and of the raw energy of a live show.
