Strohmann Games Ritual

Your shaman group is the only hope for your tribe. Can you perform the ritual together? You have only a limited time to complete the six steps of the ritual... silently! Understand your signs. Help each other. Become one. Arrange the elemental stones in the correct order to achieve your goals. Assist your fellow shamans and complete the ritual.

In Ritual, each of you is a shaman. You work together to perform a ritual that unleashes the forces of nature and protects your homeland based on the arrangement of the elemental stones. To win the game, you must complete the six steps of the ritual within three timed rounds.

Ritual is a cooperative game where you communicate about your actions without speaking. You take colored stones (the elemental stones) from other shamans or give them some. Your goal is to fulfill your own secret tasks and then the public tasks of the ritual through this redistribution.

What makes the game special? Why is it published by Strohmann Games? Ritual captivated us from the very first moment. The game is very unusual, so it might take a first round for it to "click," but then you are immediately hooked. Although you try to communicate silently through your actions, the game is filled with great emotions at the table and is just incredibly fun.

In fact, Ritual is our first "own" game and not just a pure localization. However, the original version, which the author had already sold in small quantities at fairs, was so perfect that we didn't need to editorially adjust anything about the game itself. We only revised the graphic design and the game materials.
