A fast-paced game of spellcasting, tactics
and (especially) sabotage.
Coming to Kickstarter
Build and cast the most powerful and elaborate spell to impress the Archmage and gain his favour.
But beware, your rivals are also fighting for the Archmage’s attention.
You must carefully balance building your own spell, defending your work and sabotaging your rivals.
Combine cards to create the highest value spell. Match spell school (colour) or glyphs (numbers) to build your spell’s power before you are ready to cast.
Cast your spell to score it, banking your points for the end of the game. But be cautious – when you cast your spell, your opponents may immediately sabotage you! Be ready to defend your hard work!
Disrupt your opponents spellcasting. Utilize game altering power cards or add Banes to your opponents spells to prevent them from gaining the highest score.
Defend yourself. Utilize power cards on your own spells to undo your opponent's attempts to sabotage you, or increase a spells power massively through the use of Boons.
Forge alliances…for now. Work together against the one you consider your greatest rival, combo cards together to disrupt their spells.
Don’t lose your concentration! If you cannot play a card during your turn, your spell fails and you must start your spell from scratch!
Prepare for the Final Casting. When a mage has cast three spells, or the last card of the deck has been drawn, each mage has one final chance to cast the spell they are working on before the game ends.
The mage who has cast the most impressive spells and scored the highest will earn the Archmage’s Favour!
The base game is just the beginning!
We are planning a HUGE modular expansion system for The Archmages Favour.
Each expansion will add new wrinkles to the gameplay. Adding more actions, variety and depth.
From new ways to build your spell score (such as stealing pages from the Archmage’s Grimoire) to entirely new game modes (build your Mage Tower to nurture power or jump into a Co-operative Quest!).
Combine two or more expansions together to create your ultimate spellslinging experience!
