Defense of the Citadel is a cooperative hero defense board game. Set in a high fantasy world, enemy forces are marching towards your Citadel in great numbers and only a handful of heroes remain to prevent them from achieving their goal.

The Invasion

During the invasion, players can perform special combat skills through the usage of class skill cards. Players can mix and match different classes skills to create a unique battle strategy of their own. The course of the invasion is randomized through the invasion card deck, with many different events.

Cooperation

The enemy units are controlled by the rules of the game, there are no game masters. The game is a fully cooperative game with many game elements to promote working together, such as with crafting, battles, event choices or helping other player characters who were taken out of action to continue fighting.
