About the game
Get your liver and your best bluff ready, because the tavern is open once again! The Red Dragon Inn 2 is that sequel you didn't know you needed, but now you can't stop playing. This is a standalone game, meaning you can dive straight in or, if you want even more chaos, combine it with the original to host a massive party of up to eight drunken adventurers trying to survive the night.

The goal is simple yet brutal: be the last adventurer standing, with gold in your pocket and your consciousness (or what's left of it) intact. To achieve this, you'll be managing your hand of cards, tracking your intoxication levels, and trying not to get knocked out by your friends. The game is packed with thematic components, including a drink deck, fortitude and alcohol level markers, gold, and new heroic adventurers who bring unique personalities to the table.

Meet the crew: there's Dimli, a grumpy dwarf who can outdrink anyone and is a master with axes; Eve, an illusionist who might save the party or prank her friends out of pure boredom; Fleck, a dashing half-elf bard who keeps spirits high with his music; and Gog, a hulking half-ogre who is a sweetheart but definitely someone you shouldn't ask to dance. Each character features variable player powers that shift the game's dynamics, requiring specific strategic management of your resources. It's a fast-paced, hilarious, and tense card game, perfect for anyone who loves a healthy dose of chaos and social interaction!
