Players: 1 to 4. Published in 2023. This is a Kickstarter exclusive collector's all-in pledge for the second edition of the Oathsworn board game by Shadowborne Games. It includes the Oathsworn: Into The Deepwood base game, a mystery chest with hidden miniatures, a fully narrated companion app, a terrain pack, an armory box with customizable characters, a hardback artbook, a map pack, metal coins, a secret box, and all unlocked stretch goals. Note that paid add-ons from the Kickstarter campaign are not included unless stated otherwise. Oathsworn is a 1 - 4 player grand cooperative RPG, dungeon crawler, and boss fighter set in the Deepwood. The Free company, the Oathsworn, battles for humanity's survival against unnatural horrors and the Deepwood itself. Each gaming session is like a fighting - fantasy style game book with an unfolding story leading to an inevitable encounter. These encounters are multi - phase scripted boss fights on the game board, where players outwit and outplay AI - driven monsters. As the sessions progress, the group enters a deep legacy campaign, gaining levels, loot, and new allies. Oathsworn features a unique push - your - luck combat system with exploding dice and integrated hit and damage rolls. Players must decide between hitting harder and potentially missing the attack. Combined with a euro - style cool - down and action point system, it offers a vibrant and engaging play experience. We're happy to support campaigns to bring you games like this Oathsworn bundle. A large percentage of your purchase will go towards backing new games on Kickstarter. If you have any purchase questions or need game advice, contact The Game Steward.
To start playing Oathsworn, first set up the base game using the components from the box, like laying out the map from the map pack and getting the terrain pieces from the terrain pack ready. The companion app can be downloaded and used to enhance your gaming experience as it's fully narrated. For each session, follow the story in the 'fighting fantasy' style. When you reach an encounter, use the combat system with exploding dice. Remember, you need to decide whether to go for a stronger hit or play it safe. As you play through the legacy campaign, keep track of your levels, loot, and new allies. Note that the paid add - ons from the Kickstarter campaign are not included unless stated. To maintain your game, store the components in a dry place. Keep the artbook and other paper items away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. The metal coins should be handled carefully to avoid scratches.
