Who it's for

Fantasy fans and rowdy groups who love tavern humor, variable player powers, and light betting-and-bluffing card duels.

Not for you if…

You want a quiet or purely cooperative game, since this thrives on loud direct conflict and mutual sabotage.

About this game

The Red Dragon Inn 5 sits your party of adventurers down after the dungeon crawl for the part nobody tells you about: staying upright at the bar. Each character plays wildly differently, gambling, provoking fights, or ordering round after round of drinks, while you juggle your gold and your fortitude against everyone else doing the same. Run dry on cash or pass out drunk and you are done, quietly looted by your so-called friends while the party rolls on without you. As a standalone entry, its four decks mix freely with other Red Dragon Inn sets, so your table only grows rowdier.
