About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready to expand your Mini Rogue adventures! This exclusive collection, released during the crowdfunding campaign for Season Two (The Council), brings novelties to spice up your game sessions. Meet the "Druidess," a new heroine with the impressive ability to transform into a furious bear, ready to face any challenge. But beware, as "The Corrupted," a relentless boss, is eager to devour you and your companions. In addition to these new opponents and ally, the collection also adds powerful items like the "Spiritual Tiara" and the "Cartography Room," as well as the mysterious "Astrologer" and the "Liege of Pestilence."
Mini Rogue: Forgotten Guardians is an expansion that delves even deeper into the base game's universe, offering more variety and replayability. Perfect for those who have already ventured through dungeons and are looking for new challenges and characters. The cooperative mechanic shines here, requiring players to work together to overcome dangers, while dice rolling and "push your luck" management add that delightful tension to every decision. Whether playing alone or with friends (up to 4 players!), the experience is intense and immersive, with an average playtime of 45 to 60 minutes per session. Remember that, as an expansion, you will need the base game to enjoy all these new features.
Language dependency is moderate, so be prepared to have a translated spreadsheet or cards on hand to make the most of it. If you are a fan of dungeon crawlers with a touch of luck and plenty of cooperative strategy, this expansion is a feast for continuing to explore the world of Mini Rogue.
