Epic Card Game: Duels (2021)

About this game

Duels is an easy to learn two player starter set for Epic Card Game. Perfect for new players, it is a complete game on its own and fully compatible with all Epic sets. Duels uses only four keywords and includes a step-by-step walkthrough for beginners. While it focuses on simpler gameplay, it is balanced with other Epic sets and is still a great addition to experienced players’ collections. The box includes 60 all-new game cards, 34 token cards, score cards, rules reference cards, “Gold” trackers, and a rulebook.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.7/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 13 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
