About this game
Pathfinder Adventure Card Game: Rise of the Runelords launches a full fantasy campaign without needing a game master, just a deck of cards built to think like one. You pick a hero, rogue, wizard, whoever suits you, and build a personal deck of skills, weapons and spells that literally is your character sheet. Scenarios send your party through locations stacked with monsters, traps and loot, resolved by drawing cards and rolling dice tied to ability scores. Characters grow across a real campaign arc, chapter by chapter, so decisions and deck upgrades carry weight over many sessions. A deep cooperative dungeon crawl for people who want the RPG feeling without the prep.
