About the game
What you do in a play session
Assault on Doomrock is a wacky cooperative adventure where you and your friends create utterly improbable heroes — picture a sadistic paladin or an impatient rogue who smells like cheese. The game throws you into a humor-filled fantasy world of chaos, where each playthrough is unique thanks to procedurally generated maps and encounters. You'll explore bizarre locations, collect ridiculous items, and face increasingly challenging enemies in grid-free tactical battles using a clever abstract positioning and dice allocation system. The goal? Survive until the final showdown against an epic boss. But beware: time is short, and bad decisions (or treacherous dice) can doom your adventure before the final battle. With over 300 cards creating random hero combinations, abilities, and encounters, every session is a new kind of madness.
