About the game
What you do in a play session
Ever heard that dragons are just greedy creatures hoarding gold in dark caves? Well, it turns out they are also masters of entertainment, having created their very own game using whatever leftovers they had lying around! In Heads Will Roll, you dive into this chaos in a super dynamic and fast-paced way. The goal is simple yet requires that fine motor control we all love: you take turns launching a handful of pieces across the table, using your Shield to slide and hit the scattered Skulls. Each Skull hit earns you points, but watch out—precision and luck go hand in hand here! If you manage to hit the treasure chest, you bank those points into your total, making sure they stay safe. The first player to reach 21 points wins the game. This title is a direct evolution of Dragoon: Heads Will Roll, bringing refreshed artwork and entirely different physical components while maintaining that addictive flicking mechanic essence we know and love. It is the perfect game for anyone looking for a quick, loud, and adrenaline-filled session between other games. If you enjoyed the experience of its predecessor, get ready to have even more fun with this updated and polished version. It's guaranteed fun for those who aren't afraid to lose a little control and want to test their physical dexterity in a lighthearted and casual way!
