Friends and Communities with Overlords of Infamy
Description
In Overlords of Infamy, you'll take on the role of an Evil Overlord, competing with up to four other players to make your subjects' lives as miserable as possible. With easy-to-learn rules, you'll quickly get started on harvesting materials to complete a variety of Nefarious Plots, from the ridiculous to the diabolical. As you work to outdo your fellow overlords, you'll need to contend with an annoyingly righteous Adventuring Hero trying to thwart your plans. As the game unfolds over 60 to 90 minutes, the World's tension builds, culminating in random global events that can either help or hinder your progress. With mechanics like Set Collection, Take That, and Worker Placement, you'll need to balance your own schemes with sabotage and espionage against your opponents. Will you emerge as the Overlord of Infamy, or will your rivals outdo you in infamy?
