Talisman

Legendary Tales

 

Heroes with special abilities set out to find five talismans that protect the Crown of Command. TO achieve this, five adventures must be mastered in sequence, in chosen levels of difficulty and more than once if necessary, until the adventure is completed with the number of stars necessary to begin the next one.

The respective adventure is set up; every player selects his female/male character and takes the hero beg plus seven hero tokens.

Players are active in turn and resolve three steps: 1. Travel – optional; you can stay where you are; if you travel, you roll a die and move maximum that many steps. You can cross or enter locations with other heroes or with face-down adventure tiles. A result of 4 triggers an advance of the time marker. 2. Encounters – you must stop on a location with a visible monster. If you end your turn on a location with face-down adventure tiles, you turn them up and resolve the effects. For an encounter with monsters you draw three tokens from your bag and compare symbols with those of the monsters. Those tiles must be returned to the bag in accordance with special rules. 3. Receive rewards/items for successful encounters. Players can confer on actions and win the adventure, when they acquire the talisman, albeit only when this is completed before the time marker arrives at the moon symbol.

THE classic of fantasy adventure games – it has been modernized, given five scenarios instead of three levels, and the rules have been revised for movement and rewards; it is fun encounter the game, again or for the first time; you find an ideal family game for an introduction to the genre of fantasy adventure games.
