About the game
What you do in a play session
If you're already immersed in the world of Arcadia Quest, you know that the real fun lies in assembling the perfect squad to face dangers in fantastic settings. The Haldor & Brenna expansion arrives to upgrade your group, bringing two new heroes with distinct personalities and abilities to diversify your combat tactics. It's not just about having more miniatures on the table, but about how the game dynamics shift when you add new strategic capabilities to the team.
The base game already provides that adventure vibe with a modular board and grid movement, where every step counts and dice rolls decide if that critical hit lands perfectly or if you take an epic tumble. With the arrival of Haldor and Brenna, the synergy possibilities increase. You'll be able to experiment with new ways to approach monsters and explore quests, all while enjoying the chibi aesthetic that makes everything visually delightful.
As is common with character expansions, the focus here is on adding specific content for those who want to expand their gameplay experience. If you feel your current group needs a fresh breeze or if you want to test different builds to overcome the toughest challenges of the campaign, this pack is the way to go. The low language dependency makes integrating these heroes quick and easy: it's basically taking them out of the box and starting to roll the dice. Get your group ready, organize your line of sight, and dive into the fray with these new combatants!

What exactly comes in the box?

Is it hard to learn the new abilities?

It works for any group of 2 to 4 players who already own the base game.
