Thorgal: The Board Game

Another important feature of the game is the storybook containing narrative descriptions of the encounters the characters have in each scenario. The adventures described in the book are specific to each scenario and character, but many of them are randomized within a scenario, offering greater replayability and allowing for repeated play. There are also subplots that players can pursue to gain advantages and reveal additional story elements.

Thorgal, while having a strong narrative element, offers a brand new and unique action selection mechanism. With this new mechanism, actions have different powers depending on the other actions already taken. Players plan their strategy and sequence of actions carefully, as this has a direct impact on the strength of each action's effect. This requires strategy and reflection, making every turn important for all players.

Each character gains experience over the course of the game and improves his or her abilities. This dynamic progression allows players to make significant decisions about how to develop their heroes in the game. Characters gather resources and craft items to help them survive in this dangerous world.

This edition includes the base game and the stretch goals unlocked during the Kickstarter campaign.
