About the game

What you do in a play session

Fresh from CGE, this promotional card, the Alicorn, was created to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Kulkmann's G@mebox. If you're a fan of Lost Ruins of Arnak, this little addition will add some extra spice to your adventure. The card introduces a new mechanic that allows you to turn a guardian face down without activating its special ability, which can be super useful at key moments. Keep in mind that this gem first appeared at SPIEL 2021 and later showed up in some Kickstarter campaigns. It's a nice little extra for those who enjoy collecting and enhancing the base game. The art references the G@mebox unicorn logo, giving it a nostalgic touch for long-time board game scene followers. The language dependency is minimal, with short, easy-to-memorize text, so it won't disrupt gameplay. It's one of those promos that adds a bit of strategy without overcomplicating the rules, perfect for varying your games and making everything more interesting. If you enjoy Arnak and want an exclusive item, this card is for you!
