Defending the Kingdom



You are a hero! Defending the kingdom against the invading hordes, living adventures, meeting characters, performing exploits, using magic, conquering wealth and fame, within a medieval fantasy setting.

This is the life of the players-heroes in Kingdom Defenders, a game of 2018, authored by Germán Palomar Millán, illustrated by David Arenas, and released by Ediciones Primigenio, Spain.

One more game added to the collection, as a result of attending RiaCon, five raffles and chance!

Three senses. Sight, touch, hearing. First impressions.

The box, heavy and in dark tones, evoking the pending threat. A rulebook pleasant to skim, well balanced between text and schemes, appearing to be well structured and simple to read. A board that unfolds, inviting to the game.




Player screens.



Well-illustrated cards and characters; coins and chests; all of this in thick cardboard, nice to handle and that makes that characteristic sound when detaching the parts.




In addition, a bunch of cubes and colorful discs, more traditional, and contrasting with the dominant darker tone. And a few game-specific dice and heroes tokens, both of which in need of a design a little more consistent with the other elements.



The most important is still lacking: impersonate a hero and defend the kingdom!
