About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for another adventure in the Arcadia Quest universe with the Princess Pearl expansion! This little gem adds the heroine Princess Pearl to your roster, ready to face the dangers lurking around every corner. With solid defense (2 points!) and reasonable health (3 points!), she's not just a pretty face. Her special ability is a showstopper: you can exhaust Princess Pearl to un-exhaust another hero within her line of sight. This means more actions for your team, more tactics, and a better chance to turn the tide in your favor!

Princess Pearl brings the quality known from the Arcadia Quest line, with well-crafted miniatures and appealing visuals. She fits perfectly into existing campaigns, offering another hero option for players to choose from. Whether you're a veteran of the game or just starting your adventures, Princess Pearl introduces a new dynamic, especially for those who enjoy planning moves and optimizing the group's actions. She's a valuable addition for anyone looking to expand their tactical options and dive deeper into this fantastic world.

Remember that, like other additions to the series, this expansion might require a good grasp of English, as the text on cards and components can be extensive. But don't worry, the fun and strategy Princess Pearl brings are well worth the effort. If you enjoy Arcadia Quest and want more variety for your quests, this heroine is a great choice!
