## Description
Sharpen your blade and hone your instincts, because in 'The Adventures of Conan', victory belongs to the bold! This game throws you right into the Hyborian Age, a setting of exploration, sorcery, and glorious combat. It's an asymmetrical, semi-cooperative game where you and your friends will use a pool of custom dice to control the actions of Conan, his allies, or even a cunning foe. The goal? Travel through kingdoms, seek power, train, battle enemies, and complete adventures to accumulate victory points. 

Each player has their own personal objectives, but Conan and his allies must collaborate to survive, while the Foe sets traps and works to thwart the heroes' plans. Tension is guaranteed! Victory goes to the player with the most points, but the game ends when someone reaches a key milestone, whether it's victory points, advancement on the achievement track, or reaching the end of the plot track. With variable player powers and a setup that changes each game, replayability is a strong suit. Prepare for an adventure worthy of the Dark Horse Comics, full of action and strategic decisions. It's an intense experience for fans of fantasy and challenges!
