Kingdom of Heroes

Gláucio Reis

The king is dying and the kingdom is overrun by chaos. Four of his five daughters are in peril. Soon he shall choose his successor among the nobles called to save the princesses and help rid the kingdom from its enemies. However, the candidate to the throne must also marry one of the princesses.

The players represent those nobles, who wish to prove their value and leadership by sending heroes to complete various missions. They will count on the help of the Royal Wizard Zatorius and Princess Sapphire, who has become a knight of great bravery.

Each turn, the players move a party of heroes and allocate them to missions, represented by cards placed on the board. Heroes of different players may cooperate to complete a mission and share the rewards, but only one takes the card. They should attempt to form sets of different mission types. Most fame points are earned in the end, according to the cards won. The noble who has most fame and the heart of a princess will become the new king.

This is a game that joins mechanics of modern European games to the classic and typically American theme of Medieval Fantasy. From 2 to 4 people may play. The average duration of a game is about 90 minutes, but that may vary depending on their proneness to analyze their moves.

Here you will find all the necessary material to print and play. You will only need a common die (to be modified by labels), but you may find convenient to replace some components, specially the tokens representing the heroes, as can be seen in the photo.
