Primordial, Creatures of Pandemonium társasjáték

Angol leírás

In the land of Cathaira dwell creatures, which are primordial in nature. No longer satisfied with the amiable energy the land has provided for millennia, these once peaceful and harmonious creatures have turned chaotic. Twisted by an insatiable hunger for the spreading Entropic Energy, they have become volatile and dangerous.

Humanity’s last hope lies in the hands of the honorable Mages. They must fight back. They must lean on the wisdom of the elders to harness the energy of the Abyss, the Gaia, the Inferno, the Zephyr, and the rare Celestial arts. They too will be tempted by the Entropic Energy, but will it turn them chaotic as well? One thing is certain, victory must be achieved, or all will be lost as Cathaira and all its glory, fade into a chasm of nothingness….

Primordial, Creatures of Pandemonium is a resource management game at its core. In the game, there are 6 types of Energy: Abyss (water), Gaia (earth), Inferno (fire), Zephyr (air), Celestial (sky), and Entropic (chaos)!

The game has many supporting mechanisms including Tableau Building and Area Movement and they are all influenced by these Energy types! Each turn, players of the game (Mages), traverse the Landscape and gain different types of Energy. Using this Energy, they defeat Creatures and claim them as Trophies, they master the elements, and they tap into ancient wisdom to gain remarkable abilities, amongst other things.

The game is comprised of rounds where, beginning with the starting plater, each Mage takes a turn. At the end of the round, spaces in the Landscape are filled with Energy and then the first player marker passes to the next Mage in clockwise order. Each Mage turn consists of 3 steps: Movement, Defeat Creatures, and Discard.

Honor (Victory Points) is earned by defeating Creatures and using their Trophy abilities! Mages also earn Honor by gaining Proficiency or Mastery over Energy types!

When any Mage has has achieved Proficiency of Abyss, Gaia, Inferno, and Zephyr Energy, Mages finish the round and the player with the most Honor wins!
