Once upon a time, there were no genuine heroes anymore. Only toothless thugs and uneducated phonies roamed the desolate lands, recounting false tales of their heroic deeds and deceiving humble citizens into contributing to their less-than-noble causes. When the king learned this, he became exceedingly wroth and nearly shook the jewels from his crown! This embarrassing deheroization of the land was intolerable! And so he decided to dispatch his trusty scouts to seek out the most dangerous dungeons in the realm. He then ordered the arrest of every self-proclaimed hero and cast them into dungeons in small groups. There, they would be forced to either prove their mettle or litter the dimly lit caverns with their rotting corpses. You are none other than one of these heroes. So, for you this means fight or... litter! In Dungeon Fighter, a fully cooperative board game, players take on the roles of heroes venturing deep into a three-tier dungeon. Along the way, they explore the dungeon, search its many rooms, and face endless hordes of vicious monsters. Best of all, your skill determines the ability of your character. Can you kill Medusa without looking into her eyes, defeat the Minotaur in the labyrinth, or resist the breath of the dragon. What's more, randomly drawn dungeon effects may dictate that a player throw his die behind his back, with his eyes closed, under his leg, or under any combination of (often hilarious) restrictions. Keep a steady hand and a clear mind, and your team will emerge victorious!
