From BoardGameGeek

Goblin Uprising is a Semi-Cooperative board game featuring the world's favorite punching bags: goblins. But this time they will be the ones doing the punching. Join the fray with your friends in this rebellion against the Tall Races (plus dwarves) for the future of Eldain. The objectives change with every game; fight with your friends in one match or against them in another, you'll need all the help you can get in order to dethrone the monarch and win the game. Topple tyrants, make powerful allies and betray your friends* in this chaotic adventure made for 2 to 6 players. Each player controls a goblin from a tribe on their journey to save the kingdom of Eldaine, which finds itself under the tyranny of the High Races. The first player to defeat the tyrant of Eldaine will be the winner, however it's not as simple as it sounds: as you advance, your feats start to be recognized and you start to become famous by drawing the attention of the tyrant, each ruler has a different behavior and a unique method of ending your revolutionary spirit, whether with your allies or preparing cunning traps. But don't worry, you can also count on powerful allies, since the most ancient times of Eldaine the Guardians of Nature took care of the elements of nature and life and death, with the invasion of the Tall Races their altars were destroyed and they went missing into Eldaine, find them, prove your worth and recruit them for your revolution, this cannot remain as it is the lands have always been of the Goblins, they cannot remain marginalized. Venture forth, perform adventures, complete quests, recruit powerful allies, fight, gain experience and gather more Goblins to your cause, become a hero and regain the throne of the kingdom of Eldaine! But beware, you're not the only Goblin with this goal!
