About the game
What you do in a play session
Inspired by the classic Talisman, Relic combines the simplicity of rolling a die to move with surprising depth. Each turn, you roll a die and decide whether to move clockwise or counter-clockwise through the board's regions – outer, middle, or inner. What happens next is where the magic (or chaos) unfolds: you draw cards that might pit you against dangers, unexpected allies, or breathtaking challenges. With every step, your heroes grow stronger, and the race to the center of the board, where ultimate evil awaits, intensifies. It's a journey full of seemingly simple choices that hide a sea of strategic possibilities. Relic is perfect for those who enjoy adventure games with a sci-fi twist and a dash of luck, where your character's development is as important as the roll of the dice.
