Tales of Skyland: Adventurer's Dawn

Tales of Skyland | Adventurer’s Dawn is a cooperative card-based adventure game where trust is earned, choices matter, and the land itself remembers. As adventurers from distant lands unite to push back a rising evil, they must forge alliances, face unpredictable challenges, and confront not only external foes but the growing corruption within. The game unfolds through modular Path Cards, which replace the traditional board and create a dynamic journey through Skyland. Each path is shaped by player decisions—some routes offer opportunity and growth, others may split the party or lead into dangerous territory. With every stop, players draw Adventure Cards that reveal new locations, enemies, events, quests, and treasures, resolved in sequence to guide the story like a living dungeon master. Combat is fast and tactical, blending real-time cooperation with careful planning. Players roll D6s to manage strikes and defense, and D20s to trigger powerful Sigils and skill-based actions. Face bosses with multi-phase behavior, parry or evade enemy blows, and shield your teammates when the odds stack high. Choose from 12 species and 10 professions, each freely combinable with your choice of equipment and customizable sigils. Build your own unique playstyle—whether you fight with a bow, dual blades, or ethereal energy, no class locks you in. Earn experience, evolve your stats, and equip legendary gear as you grow stronger with each battle. But beware: the more reckless or selfish your choices, the more Corruption seeps in. Once your corruption reaches the threshold, you must draw a hidden Alignment card, changing your win condition and possibly turning you against the party. Will you remain loyal, or betray everything for power? With endless replayability, evolving strategies, and a rich world that unfolds through cards, Skyland offers a fresh, immersive experience for fantasy lovers and fans of cooperative RPGs alike. —description from the designer
