Who it's for

You want a quick D&D-flavoured card fight, maybe to show newcomers what the setting feels like. Good with four players and snacks.

Not for you if…

You want deep strategy or a longer game. Being knocked out early is part of the deal, though it never takes long.

Vibe's take

Fast, loud and a little vicious: you hit, you get hit, and the table shifts alliances every turn. The elimination is gentle because the games are so short.

About this game

Dungeon Mayhem is a quick Dungeons & Dragons card brawl where the goal is simple: be the last adventurer standing. You pick a hero, a barbarian, paladin, rogue or wizard, each with Kyle Ferrin's illustrated deck, and play powerful cards to hurt, shield or heal. Sutha the Skullcrusher whirls axes, Azzan the Mystic swaps hit points with a rival through Vampiric Touch, and Lia and Oriax have their own tricks. It is a take-that duel with players getting knocked out, over in about ten minutes. Aimed at kids from eight and up, but a good fit for adult D&D fans who want a snack between quests.
