The Dwarves: The Duel (2015)

About this game

In The Dwarves: The Duel, one player takes the role of the little hero while the other uses both skill and the luck of the dice to lead the enemies of the country. Both players use card-decks with identical values but alternative artwork/naming. The Dwarves: The Duel also contains The Dwarves: The Triumph of the Dwarves - new adventures for The Dwarves so that players can re-enact the events of the novel The Triumph of the Dwarves, which was released in German in 2015.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.6/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
