GOLDblivion (2023)

About this game

Build a colony and conquer territories in a medieval-fantasy gold rush! With a gameplay centered around double-deck-building, be the first to get 10 gold ingots to be crowned King/Queen of GOLDblivion! In GOLDblivion, you have two decks of cards to manage: one for combat and one for development. Every turn starts by removing a card from your hand. This card is placed under a chosen section of your player board and will give a precious resource all game long! This process will also naturally clean your deck from bad cards. Combat is made by conquering territories represented by hexagonal tiles. The number of free spaces around a tile is the number of cards you draw from your combat deck to defeat the enemy under this territory. They get increasingly stronger and are more rewarding too! Based on the ever-changing cards in the market, develop a long-term strategy and find the best combinations between Elf, Dwarf, Human and Building cards to maximize your gold and be crowned King/Queen of GOLDblivion!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 1.9/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
