Age: 8+
Designer: Jordan Comar, Roscoe Wetlaufer
Artist: Kyle Ferrin
Publisher: Wizards of the Coast
Will you be the last adventurer standing. Face off against your opponents with your unique deck of cards. Will you choose the Barbarian, strong and bold. Perhaps a Paladin is more your style with faith and courage. Would a sly rogue be more your style with their sneaky strategies? Does a smart wizard slinging spells across the battlefield fit your style a bit better?
Players will choose their hero and play cards in order to knock their opponent's life down to 0 which eliminates that player. The last player standing is the winner.
This game is super simple to pick up and quick to play. The artwork by Kyle Ferrin is whimsical and fantastic. It’s a great filler game. If you have some time before your RPG game waiting for everyone to arrive this is definitely a fun one to bring out.
There are 2 expansions for the game so far. The Battle for Baldurs Gate expansion adds 2 new characters to the game. The Monster Madness expansion allows you to play as one of six monsters from the Dungeons and Dragons universe. It provides rules for up to 6 players to be able to play the game.
