About the game
Get your boots and coats ready, because the weather in Andor has taken a turn for the worse! In 'The Legends of Andor: The Eternal Frost', the land is being plagued by a supernatural cold that is anything but natural. To solve this mystery, you and your friends (2 to 4 players) will take on the role of brave heroes on an epic journey beyond the mountains, exploring unknown and frozen lands.

The big highlight here is the new double-sided game board, which expands exploration possibilities and introduces new challenges. You won't be alone: along the way, you'll find loyal allies, but you'll also face unexpected dangers that will test the group's coordination. The dynamics are purely cooperative, so communication is key: planning every move and dice roll is essential to avoid being swallowed by the ice.

The game is organized into four epic legends, turning the experience into a true campaign where every decision matters. If you love that feeling of 'we're almost there, but time is running out', this game is for you. The tension is constant, and the satisfaction of discovering who is behind the magical threat of the eternal frost is the ultimate reward. It's a perfect mix of strategy, luck, and narrative, ideal for those who want to feel inside a fantasy book, fighting monsters and uncovering secrets in a hostile world. Will you be able to save Andor, or will you end up as a popsicle?
