A cooperative last stand where you and your heroes defend a fortress against an endless monstrous siege.
Who it's for
Fantasy skirmish fans and co-op groups who want a tense, combat-heavy siege defense in under an hour.
Not for you if…
You dislike the possibility of a hero dying mid-game or want a low-conflict, purely puzzle-driven co-op.
Vibe's take
tense, combative, fast-paced, desperate, cooperative
Last Bastion puts your back against the wall, literally: you and your fellow heroes just stole the Baleful Queen's relics, and now her hordes are throwing themselves at your fortress to get them back. You defend a modular battlefield square by square, rolling dice to hold the line while a card-driven deck determines how fast and hard the enemy waves keep coming. Every hero brings distinct powers to the defense, and losing one doesn't end the game, it just makes the next wave harder to survive. Setup changes every session, so no two sieges play out the same way. It's a tight, tense 45-minute co-op skirmish built for players who like their fantasy combat fast and a little desperate.
