Description

In the realm of Vaile, chaos has erupted with the fall of the Keeper, and it's up to you to claim the Mantle of the Keeper and restore order. As one of six unique Chosen characters, you'll battle it out with up to three other players in this card-driven skirmish game. With the ability to play head to head or on teams, you can choose your approach to become the next Keeper. Each Chosen has its own distinct playstyle, deck of cards, and abilities, allowing you to leverage their strengths and outmaneuver your opponents. As you construct the arena and place Hazard tokens, you'll need to think strategically about movement and attacks. Unleash devastating blows on your foes using your Chosen's skill set, and counter their attacks with powerful defenses to gain Favor. This valuable resource can be spent to upgrade your Chosen and unlock their unique abilities, giving you the edge you need to succeed. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of just 30 to 60 minutes, Mantle of the Keeper is the perfect game for fans of fantasy and fighting games. Will you rise to the challenge and take up the Mantle of the Keeper, or will your opponents outmaneuver you and claim the title for themselves?
