Description Edit | History

The Elven king is dead, and players are competing to become the next king. This game is similar in nature to Elfenroads/Elfenland in that players try to visit as many cities as possible using optimal transportation cards; what's different is that the lay of the land is also dictated by card play. Other players may interfere with your journey through the use of thieves, obstacles, and sea serpents.

2 NPC village variant for two-player game, v1.0
this variant adds a couple extra “non-player” villages to the playing field, making it bit more of a challenge to visit all the villages and collect the 10-gold bonus

1 Rules Quicky, v1.1 / Card Manifest, v1.1
