Description

The Dwarves is a cooperative board game where 2 to 5 players work together to keep evil from flooding the land of Girdlegard. Based on the novel by Markus Heitz, each player chooses a dwarf with unique abilities and stats, and must use their skills to fight against orcs, trolls, and dark elves, travel to different locations, and complete quests. With a playtime of 60 to 90 minutes, this game is perfect for those familiar with board games, as the rules are of normal complexity. As players take turns, they must succeed in dice-driven challenges to progress, and if they fail to control the spread of evil while completing major quests, they will lose. With several expansions available, including new heroes and character packs, The Dwarves offers a fun and exciting experience for fans of fantasy and cooperative gameplay. Published in 2012, this game has become a classic among board game enthusiasts, and its engaging mechanics and immersive theme make it a great choice for anyone looking for a challenging and entertaining game.
