Description

Goblin is a classic fantasy game of strategy and skill, where two players take on opposing roles in a battle of wits. One player becomes the Goblin King, leading their mischievous raiders into a peaceful valley to pillage and burn, while the other player must maneuver the farmers and the Baron's troops to defend against the raids. The goal is simple: amass the greatest amount of plunder as the Goblin King before being killed in battle or deposed by your own goblins. This game, designed by Howard Barasch and first published in 1982, offers a unique blend of dice rolling, grid movement, and simulation mechanics that will keep you on the edge of your seat. With a playtime of 180 minutes, Goblin is a game that requires thought and strategy, but is still easy to learn for those familiar with board games. The game's normal complexity level makes it accessible to a wide range of players, and its fantasy setting and variable setup ensure that each game is different from the last. Whether you're a fan of wargames or just looking for a fun and challenging experience, Goblin is a great choice, and its availability as a free print-and-play version makes it easy to get started.
