Rat Queen adds a whole new dimension to monsters in Ascension! To set up, shuffle the Rat Queen cards into the center deck, then place the Giant Rats to the side. When the Rat Queen shows up in the center row, turn the other cards in the center row face down, shuffle them, then cover each of those cards with a Giant Rat. Players need to defeat these rats — or the Queen herself — before being able to get to the other cards.

Ascension Theme Pack: Rat Queen comes with two copies of the Rat Queen and ten Giant Rats, enough for the rodent infestation to strike twice in a single game!
