You’re sitting comfortably in the town’s tavern, listening to other adventurers swap tales of ancient treasure and daring deeds. You walked long hours already today, cutting off-road to cross the Riverlands south of Red Bridge, but you can feel the weight of the miles falling away. As you sit, a young man bursts through the tavern doors and shouts that a dragon’s been sighted in Mennara’s Teeth. “Not to worry,” you say as you rise. “This one’s all mine.”
Welcome to Terrinoth, adventurer! You are one of a few worthy heroes, wandering across the realm and taking what quests you encounter. But now, a dark terror from centuries past has awoken, and it threatens to cast all of Terrinoth into darkness. Only a peerless hero - a hero such as you - can defeat this evil, save the realm, and have your name enshrined as a living legend!
Terrinoth is a realm filled with wonder. Lost ruins hold hidden treasure. Strange creatures dwell in the deepest forests and beneath the waters of lakes and rivers. The Free Cities are repositories of learning, magic, and craftsmanship. Yet, danger lurks in the wilds between the civilized cities. Dark forces stir once more, waylaying travelers and attacking remote settlements. Rumors even suggest that a deadly threat from the past has arisen in a bid to cover the land in darkness.
In Runebound, a fantasy adventure board game, you take on up to three rivals in a contest to become the most renowned hero and save the realm. You and your rival heroes will adventure throughout Terrinoth, battling monsters, navigating tense social encounters, and exploring lost ruins and forgotten forests. As you adventure, your hero gains power, develops skills, and acquires powerful weapons, before using them to take on a deadly opponent in a climactic final battle. Only the mightiest hero will be remembered forever!
In Runebound, two distinct scenarios give shape to your adventures, challenging you to battle undead or outwit a dragon, even as you explore lost ruins and encounter the inhabitants of Terrinoth. An array of adventure cards and story cards make every game unique, and you can customize your hero with over 100 different skills and assets. Whether you play a mage bristling with spells or a powerful warrior, every game of Runebound offers an incomparable adventure.
In every game of Runebound, you craft your own story and play as one of six powerful heroes searching for adventure throughout the land of Terrinoth. The realm is filled with encounters for you to experience – adventures to join and quests to fulfill. You may battle a fearsome Ettin in the wilds of Terrinoth, take a smuggling job or report the smuggler, or take a quest to explore the heights of Madman Pass. The choices you make, like the adventures you choose, are ultimately yours, which gives Runebound a vast amount of replayability.
Ancient evil threatens to plunge Terrinoth into a new era of darkness. Only you and a handful of other heroes have a chance of defeating this threat and saving the realm. Will you become a living legend, or will your name fade away with the other heroes who came too late? Decide your fate and the fate of Terrinoth in Runebound!
