About the game

What you do in a play session

Who says dungeon heroes have to be just serious and imposing humans or elves? In Rollgeon Quest: Paws and Perils, the adventure gets a touch of cuteness and an extra dose of chaos with the arrival of four-legged companions! If you already thought the base game was fun, get ready, because this expansion was made to bring that unpredictability we all love (and sometimes fear).

The pack is straightforward and brings very interesting novelties to your table. First, we have a brand-new dungeon sheet to ensure the setting doesn't get repetitive. But the real star of the show is the nine exclusive pet cards. Forget those generic mascots; here we have everything from a faithful dog and a steadfast tortoise to a clever rat, a sly lizard, and even an adventurous pig.

The dynamic is simple and addictive: before starting the journey, you choose four of these pets to accompany your party. Each one possesses unique abilities that can be the deciding factor between an epic victory or a total disaster. Some pets will provide that much-needed strength or cunning boost, while others might simply cause unexpected chaos in the middle of combat.

It is the kind of content that adds layers of strategy and, of course, plenty of personality to the game. Whether to provide tactical support or just to see what fate (and your new furry friend) has in store for the session, Paws and Perils ensures that every delve is a fresh experience. So, grab your dice, prep your heroes, and don't forget to give your new allies a treat, because the dungeon won't explore itself!
