| DESCRIPTION
A twisted mage has built an impenetrable vault in which to pursue his heinous
experiments. Horrendous fiends now plague the countryside, terrorizing helpless
peasants and destroying vital crops. The people cry out for great heroes to
confront this evil. Do you have the courage to enter the deadly Vault of the
Fiends?
Vault of the Fiends is a two- to four-player Dungeoneer
card game. Your character explores a wilderness that you build with map
cards, while fighting monsters, completing quests, and leveling up along the
way.
Vault of the Fiends features a few new mechanics that should serve to enhance
the game play which players of
Tomb of the Lich
Lord will be familiar with. Some monsters, and attack cards are “pumpable”
that means you may spend extra Glory or Peril to boost the effectiveness of the
card. Also conditions on the map change such as effects being deactivated when a
certain Quest is completed or throwing a switch in a room to extend a bridge
across the Fiery Chasm. One of the more unexpected new mechanics are “artifact”
Quests, such as the Armor Golem’s Glove which makes your hero more powerful or
the Sunken Treasure which makes your hero faster. These do not confer a level,
but are rotated 180 degrees so you can read the bonus they provide.
Each Dungeoneer set can be played as a stand-alone card game, or combined with
other decks for more dungeon-delving fun. Vault of the Fiends features 110 new
Dungeoneer cards, including fiend-themed monsters and six new heroes for your
Dungeoneer game: Gnome Illusionist, Dwarven Runecaster, Ork Shaman, Drakan
Sentinel, Human Beastmaster, and Elf Assassin.
