## Description
Hey everyone! Get your swords and spells ready, because in 'The Liberation of Rietburg' we're diving headfirst into the 'Legends of Andor' universe for a breathtaking cooperative adventure! King Brandur's fortress, Rietburg, has been invaded by sinister creatures like Gors and Skral, and only the unity of Andor's heroes can save the day. The mission is clear: complete four of six mysterious tasks that will only be revealed during the game. It's a standalone game, so you don't need to have played other 'Andor' titles to enjoy this one.

Each player takes control of a hero with unique abilities, which already guarantees a good dose of strategy and replayability. Along the journey, you'll find super useful items and even make new friends who will join the cause, providing that extra boost. Movement and combat against creatures are done with cards, so be prepared to manage your hand well and plan each step. But beware, time is an enemy as dangerous as the monsters! If you take too long to complete the objectives, defeat is certain for everyone. So, let's work as a team, optimize every action, and liberate Rietburg before it's too late!
