About the game

What you do in a play session

Arena: The Contest – Legendary Box is the ultimate box for fans of epic miniature battles who want to dive deep into Dragori Games' universe. It brings together everything promised in the first Kickstarter campaign: 16 exclusive heroes, 70 high‑quality miniatures, and all the expansions released, such as Heroes & Dungeons, Harun the Shapeshifter, Hydra, and Ascaran the Archangel & Vanarus the Demon. The game keeps the action‑queue mechanic, where players plan their moves ahead of time, but also delivers the adrenaline of real‑time combat, with dice rolls deciding who wins each duel. The modular board, divided into grids, lets players move using movement points, while player elimination ramps up the tension of every match. Additionally, each hero has variable powers, ensuring no two games feel the same and keeping the experience fresh. The game's components are sturdy, featuring an internal tray, detailed miniatures, and game pieces that make organization a breeze. If you love strategy, action, and a touch of medieval fantasy, Arena: The Contest – Legendary Box is the right pick. Get ready to command your army, plan every move, and prove who the true champion of the arena is!
