Heroes of Xhandar

2024·Florian Fiedler

2 - 5 players
30 - 45 min
Very heavy weight: Rules-dense, long sessions

From BoardGameGeek

Twelve intrepid heroes fight to preserve the world of Xhandar. After a tremendous shock, the shards of knowledge have shattered and their pieces have scattered everywhere. To save Xhandar and preserve the knowledge of their clan, the heroes compete to collect the crystal pieces. Heroes of Xhandar is a trick-taking game for 2-6 players. Use your hero's unique abilities to collect the number of crystals needed to win before your fellow players. Duel your friends in different game modes, explore powerful synergies, and foil their plans before their eyes. One fierce battle should take about 30 - 45 min. Enter a world of strategy and competition where every decision counts. With 76 cards and 12 unique hero cards, this game is a complex dance of wits and strategy. Each player draws a hero card with a unique victory condition that must be met to win the game. The game begins with players being dealt seven cards, and each player takes turns placing cards in the trick zone until no player has any cards left in their hand. Points are scored by winning tricks and placing cards with diamonds into the stash zone. The game is won by the player who meets their hero card's victory condition with the largest surplus. The game also features action cards that can change the course of the game in an instant. Will you be able to outmaneuver your opponents and emerge victorious? The only way to find out is to take the challenge. Game modes: Heroes of Xhandar Draft 2v2 Duel Playing Heroes of Xhandar in the different game modes adds even more variety and excitement. -description from the designer
