Description

In the world of Runes & Ruin, the legendary Dragon Lord's demise has left the land vulnerable to the shadows, and it's up to the descendants of heroes to save the day. This team-based game, designed by Shen-Hao Chang, is all about exploration, strategy, and a little bit of deception. Players work together to explore the ruin, collecting powerful artifacts and characters with unique abilities to aid in their quest. But beware, as one to three shadow followers are hiding in plain sight, trying to sabotage the heroes' plan to find the runes and seal the shadows. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of just 20 minutes, Runes & Ruin is the perfect game for a group of 4 to 6 friends looking for a fun and social experience. The game's blend of bluffing, deduction, and fantasy elements makes for a thrilling adventure, as players must navigate the ruin, attack their enemies, and figure out who they can trust. First published in 2015, Runes & Ruin has established itself as a exciting and dynamic game that's all about teamwork, strategy, and a little bit of luck. Will you be able to find the runes and save the land, or will the shadow followers succeed in their nefarious plans? There's only one way to find out.
