Board Game Geek Rating: 5.52, Avg Player Rating: 8.38. Suitable for 1 - 4 players and published in 2020. This Kickstarter - exclusive Altar Quest board game from Blacklist Games is an all - in combo. It includes the core game, the KS Exclusive Call of the Lunarin Expansion, Ruins of Arkenspire Campaign Box, First Four Heroes Pack, Base Ring Pack, Neoprene Board Mats, and all unlocked stretch goals. Note: the Hero Dice Pack is not included, and paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are generally not included unless stated otherwise. In Altar Quest, players choose a hero with unique cards and equipment. They select a quest deck, a threat deck as the main enemy forces, and a villain deck. These fixed decks can be mixed and matched for various combinations. Besides the enemies in the threat deck, lurkers, represented by a deck of different enemies, add variety to the battles. While heroes strive to complete their quest before attracting the villain's attention, the altars' unstable magic constantly impacts the game. The altar dice are linked to rhunes, which can enhance cards. Every time an altar die is used, it's rolled to create a changing mix of rhunes. Inspired by modular deck systems, Altar Quest offers a deep fantasy adventure, whether for a single game or a long - term campaign. At TheGameSteward, we're glad to support campaigns like this. A large portion of your purchase of this bundle will go towards backing new Kickstarter games. If you have any questions, contact us at The Game Steward.
To start playing Altar Quest, first, pick your hero with its own set of cards and equipment. Then, choose a quest deck, a threat deck, and a villain deck. You can mix and match these decks to create different game scenarios. Remember, the Hero Dice Pack is not included in this bundle, and usually, paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign aren't either. As you play, keep an eye out for the lurkers. They'll add more variety to the enemies you have to defeat. When using the altar dice, roll them each time to get different rhunes that can enhance your cards. Try different deck combinations to experience various adventures, whether you're playing a one - off game or a long - term campaign. Store the game in a dry place to keep the cards and components in good condition. If you have any problems or questions, don't hesitate to contact The Game Steward.
