Dungeons & Dragons: Temple of Elemental Evil Board Game

A cooperative D&D dungeon crawl with miniatures, tile exploration and scenarios for one to five heroes.

Pick a hero, grab a sword or a spell, and march into the dungeon beneath the Sword Coast. Temple of Elemental Evil is a cooperative Dungeons & Dragons adventure for one to five, played on tiles that you reveal as you explore. Each hero, such as a fighter, cleric or wizard, has their own abilities, and on your turn you explore new tiles, move through known ground and fight monsters. Every freshly revealed tile can mean a fresh encounter, so a plan rarely survives the next flip. It comes with several scenarios and quests, and it fits together with the other D&D Adventure System games such as Legend of Drizzt and Castle Ravenloft. Expect dice, miniatures and shared dread.

Who it's for

You like fantasy dungeon crawls with miniatures and want a cooperative game where the whole table fights the dungeon together.

Not for you if…

You want deep strategy or a competitive game. Dice and tile draws decide a lot, and the dungeon can be repetitive.

Vibe's take

Classic dungeon-crawl tension. You flip a tile, hold your breath, and then everyone helps clean up whatever stepped out of the dark.
