Anomalies originating from radioactive bomb craters gave birth to monstrosities of which even pre-war scientists hadn’t dreamed. Mephisto is a giant maggot, a unique synthesis of flesh and steel, which can even threaten well-armed expeditionary forces. Contaminated craters seem tempting as a shortcut or a reservoir of valuable resources; most often, it becomes a burial ground for trespassers. Entering the monster’s territory is, in reality, a struggle under the enemy’s rules, with many traps and deceptions awaiting the victim. It’s like fighting an entire army, not just a single creature!
Neuroshima Hex! Mephisto started life as a fan-created army expansion for Neuroshima Hex!, but in 2013 Portal Games announced that it had developed Mephisto and would now release it as an official expansion.
