📖 About This Game

In Cones of Dunshire, a gaming experience for 2-12 players, the goal is to accumulate cones: four cones wins, but in order to get a cone you have to build a civilization - which is where the Spirit Cards come in. Each player takes on the identity of one of two wizards, a maverick, the Arbiter, two warriors, a corporal, or a ledgerman (who doesn't play but keeps score while wearing a hat that says "Ledgerman"). Then there's the Challenge Play - the thing about the Challenge Play is that it's basically the game - in reverse. The game Cones of Dunshire is based on the fictional game Cones of Dunshire as seen on the NBC television program Parks & Recreation. A one-off charity live version was hosted by Mayfair Games at Gencon in 2014. The game box contained a souvenir t-shirt and nothing else.
