About the game

What you do in a play session

Arcadia Quest: Guildmaster Kickstarter Heroes is the most anticipated expansion for the already popular adventure game Arcadia Quest. If you’re familiar with the modular board, grid-based combat, and dice‑rolling core, you’ll love the exclusive heroes that Kickstarter delivered. The set introduces 20 heroes, each with detailed miniatures and unique abilities that slot seamlessly into the base game’s rules. Every hero has a variable power that reshapes the strategy of each match, letting even veteran players experiment with fresh tactics. The expansion keeps the same playtime – about 60 minutes – and works for 2 to 4 players, making it ideal for quick sessions or for those who enjoy a fast‑paced table. Dice‑rolling remains the heart of combat, but now players can use special powers to swing the game in their favor. The modular board stays the foundation, ensuring each game is unique with different tile combinations that affect positioning and terrain cover. The anime/manga and chibi theme brings a vibrant visual flair, with cute characters and bright colors that appeal to fans of Japanese pop culture. The expansion is perfect for those who already own the base game and want more content, but it also serves as a light introduction to the Arcadia Quest universe for newcomers. Though the complexity is moderate, players who enjoy strategy and customization will find great value in this set. If you love miniatures, unique powers, and a fantasy setting with an anime aesthetic, this expansion is for you. Don’t miss out on the new hero stories – from Sonja and Montoya to Monkey King – and see how each can turn the tide of adventure.
