Description

In the shadows of Brighthelm, a group of mischievous and malevolent bodachs are stirring, seeking to exploit Garolium's tournament for their own power grab. As the moon rises, these night horrors emerge from their dark lairs, bringing with them a new level of chaos and competition to the world of Paupers' Ladder. The Bodachs of Brighthelm expansion introduces four new characters to the game, each with their own unique abilities and playstyles, allowing 2 to 4 players to experience the game in a whole new way. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, Paupers' Ladder: The Bodachs of Brighthelm is easy to pick up and play, but don't let that fool you - the game is full of depth and complexity, with mechanics like area movement, deck building, and pick-up and deliver. Players will need to navigate the city, enslaving creatures to become their familiars and using their bodach powers to trick or treat their opponents, all in the quest for dominance. The game is a thrilling 60 to 90 minute experience, perfect for fans of exploration, fantasy, and horror, and is designed by Paul Stapleton. As an expansion for the base game Paupers' Ladder, The Bodachs of Brighthelm offers a fresh and exciting new perspective on the original, and its limited physical print run of 100 copies makes it a rare and unique addition to any board game collection. Whether you're a fan of the original game or just looking for a new challenge, Paupers' Ladder: The Bodachs of Brighthelm is a must-play experience that will have you on the edge of your seat as you battle to climb to the top of the festering pile and emerge victorious.
