About the game

What you do in a play session

If you already feel like a true defender of the realm in Chronicles of Avel, get ready to upgrade your arsenal! The 'Hero's Treasures' expansion is the kind of treat we all love: simple, straightforward, and adding just the right amount of flavor to your adventures. Originally released during the 2021 Essen fair, this small promo pack does exactly what it says on the tin: it injects more variety into your experience without complicating the rules you already know and love.

The process is as smooth as a walk through the woods of Avel. All you need to do is open the pack and add the three new item tokens directly into your equipment bag during the setup phase. That's it! There are no secrets, no hundred-page rulebooks, just new gear that your heroes can pull out by luck while exploring the modular board. These items bring new tactical possibilities, helping you and your party better prepare to face the hordes of monsters threatening the kingdom.

For those who play regularly, this is an excellent addition to keep the game from feeling repetitive. Since Chronicles of Avel shines precisely due to its accessibility and family-friendly dungeon crawler vibe, having new items to equip your characters with increases replayability in a very organic way. You'll feel that extra satisfaction when pulling a new piece of gear from the bag, which might just be the difference between a narrow victory or an epic defeat. It's a small piece of content, but it shows the developers' care in keeping the game alive and interesting for the community. If you enjoy the base game, this is a no-brainer: an essential accessory to make your sessions even richer and more varied.
