MetaZoo is a tabletop collectible card game based on cryptozoology, folklore and the paranormal first published by MetaZoo Games LLC. in 2020. MetaZoo centers around creatures known as Beasties who are inspired by cryptids and other figures from mythology and folklore such as Bigfoot, Mothman, Piasa Bird, the Chupacabra and other fearsome critters. The card game is also notable for including a fourth wall mechanic where the real-life surroundings, such as the location of the player, can affect the gameplay and the outcome of the game.[1]
On January 29, 2024, MetaZoo Games founder Michael Waddell wrote on the company's Discord it was shutting down production effective immediately.[2] Metazoo filled bankruptcy in March of 2024. Metazoo was sold to Metatwo llc. Metazoo will have a new set releasing in the first quarter of 2025.[3]
