About the game
What you do in a play session
The Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era – Summerset brings the magic and mystery of Summerset, a jewel of the Aldmeri Dominion, straight to your table. Instead of merely exploring the surface, you dive into an unstable underground where mages wielding Aedric spears and silent assassins await your arrival. The expansion shines with its modular hexagonal board, which can be rearranged each game, offering new paths and challenges. Dice aren’t just numbers: each face carries an icon that determines specific actions, making the roll itself a strategy. Players take on adventurer roles with unique powers that vary based on initial choice, creating distinct experiences each session. Technological progression allows unlocking skills that change the game’s dynamics, while missions and scenarios connect in an epic campaign that can be played cooperatively or solo. Component design is robust, with detailed miniatures and tokens that enhance the fantasy theme. However, the game can last from two to four hours, requiring patience and attention to detail. For those who enjoy rich narratives and innovative dice mechanics, this expansion offers hours of fun and unexpected twists.
