Boss Quest (2019)

About this game

Boss Quest is a humorous game inspired by video games. You have to save the princess, who has been kidnapped by many bosses. Pick your weapons, equip them, and, with a push-your-luck mechanism, be the player closest to the boss' value without exceeding it! You can also cast spells on your enemies to be the first knight to reach the princess.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 1.7/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
