Hey board game enthusiasts! Get your claws and scales ready, because in Dragoon, you are the most powerful dragons on the island, and peace is over! Humans have arrived, and with them, the perfect opportunity for you to show who's boss and, of course, hoard piles and piles of gold. This is an action-strategy game where the landscape changes every round, ensuring no two games are ever the same.
Each turn, the map expands with new villages and cities appearing via a coordinate system, and that's where the fun begins. You have a cruel choice: claim these settlements so they pay you gold tributes, or simply destroy them to snatch the treasure instantly. It's a game-changing decision, so think carefully, you greedy reptiles!
But don't think it's just about plundering humans. Your fellow dragons also have their eyes on the gold and can become your biggest rivals. Prepare for epic dragon-on-dragon combat, defending your empire and your treasure-filled caves. And the best part? No one is out of the game until the very last coin is snatched! Dragoon is super easy to learn, perfect for that game night with friends, whether they're veterans or newcomers. Everyone will have a blast competing to see who is the richest and most feared dragon on the island!
