About the game

What you do in a play session

Guildhall Fantasy: Alliance is a strategic card game where you recruit characters from different professions, each with unique abilities that grow stronger as you collect more of them. But beware: when you trade a complete set for victory points, you lose those abilities until you rebuild them. It's a balancing act between hoarding power and scoring points, with a dash of 'Take That' to keep things spicy. Perfect for fans of quick decisions and direct interaction, all wrapped up in under an hour.
