The Great Khan is dead, plunging the world of Eretsu into total war. The Khan’s heirs fight amongst themselves for control of his shattered Dominion as the Durani Empire mobilizes to regain lost lands and honor. Their most fearsome weapon are Golems, arcane war machines created and mastered by powerful sorcerers. As the world of Eretsu descends into chaos, now it’s your turn to take command of a Golem army and fight for honor, glory, or riches.
Golem Arcana is point-based, army-building game in which each player fields an army consisting of Golems, Knights (sorcerors who “pilot” the Golems), Ancient Ones (powerful gods that might intervene on the army’s behalf), and Relics (powerful magical artifacts that can be carried and deployed by Golems). Golems are represented on the game board with pre-painted figures in four size classes - from 40mm War Sprites to the 140mm Colossus, while Relics are depicted on game cards, and Knights and Ancient Ones are digital characters obtained within the Golem Arcana app, which handles all the rules and record keeping, freeing up the players to concentrate on devising strategies and having fun.
The magic of the Bluetooth-powered Tabletop Digital Interface (TDI) Stylus keeps the Golem Arcana App connected to the action on the gameboard. Players move their Golems and launch attacks by tapping the appropriate game pieces with the Stylus. Each unit boasts special powers and capabilities. The key to victory is figuring out how to best combine these abilities to unleash havoc on the enemy.
The Core Set comes complete with a TDI Stylus (batteries included), six pre-painted Golem figures with stat cards, six double-sided Map Tiles, two Control Cards, two 10-sided dice, a Lorebook, and a QuickStart Guide.
