About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for a rather unpleasant smell wafting into Arcadia! The deadly Poison Dragon, Rotwailer, has made its epic entrance, and the city is in an uproar. Things are serious: the heroes need to stop fighting amongst themselves and focus on this slimy threat before it's too late. This expansion for Arcadia Quest and Arcadia Quest Inferno throws you into a dual mission against this stinky monster.

First, you'll have to fend for yourselves to take down the dragon in a fierce competition. But don't be fooled, that's not the end of it! After defeating it (if you manage!), the real battle begins: you'll have to cooperate to ensure the threat is eliminated once and for all. It's a mix of competition and cooperation that will test your skills and your ability to work as a team, all with the visual charm and mechanics that have already won over fans of the series.

With new art, challenges, and strategies, Poison Dragon brings a breath of fresh air (even if it smells bad) to existing campaigns. If you enjoy the vibe of Arcadia Quest, with its dice, miniatures, and unique powers, this expansion is a perfect addition to extend the fun and face an epic challenge. The fight for Arcadia's survival has never been so... smelly!
