Quodd Heroes (2nd Edition)

ABOUT THE GAME:

You are a cube-shaped hero in a dangerous, sometimes chaotic, but always fun-filled world. Choose a scenario, gather your friends, select your Heroes and prepare yourselves for loads of fast-paced adventure!

In order to move around the board, a Quodd must tumble! Tumbling activates one of five upgradable movement skills, or your Q skill (is it Q-Power?) based on the side of your Hero that is facing up after you tumble. While moving, you'll be interacting with special board obstacles and tiles like raging rivers, springs, teleporters, dangerous pits, and of course your opponents (or teammates). But don't worry... I'm sure your friends always have your best interests at heart.

Along your journey, be sure to collect the crystals you find on the board. They'll activate special abilities unique to your Hero, but be careful—other Heroes can steal the crystals you’re carrying! During your turn you will also discover food, runes and other useful stuff to enhance your natural abilities, modify the board, and slow down your opponents.

Out in the world you’ll also occasionally find secrets, usually hidden away in difficult to reach places, but always worth the journey as they often contain game-changing advantages for your Hero. A Hero who slows down by activating their Q will also discover the secrets of the world which are available only to those who look for them.

At the end of your turn you will read an event card out loud. Event cards affect all players, but don’t panic, usually nothing bad happens… and sometimes they’ll even invite you to upgrade your Hero! WHAT'S IN THE BOX:

The game includes beautiful miniatures, exceptional components, and eight beautifully illustrated, infinitely-replayable scenario maps, each offering a fun new challenge. Scenarios include races, Rallies, pick-up-and-deliver challenges, and team games like capture the crystal, sheep soccer and more!

On top of all that, the Quodd Heroes game system is truly a sandbox and lends itself to quick and easy building of your own home-crafted scenarios—the sky's the limit!
