Board Game Destinies - Witchwood

A journey to dangerous thickets

Addition for the game "Destinies" features a new story campaign with 4 exciting chapters, introducing you to new heroes and enemies, new fates and mechanics, new story dilemmas and locations to explore.

The thickets of the Witchwood are ruled by ancient spirits - ancient magical creatures with whom the inhabitants of the villages scattered around the edge once concluded a contract. According to this treaty, people must stay in their settlements and not go off the beaten paths, so as not to disturb the inhabitants of the gloomy and fairy forest, and then the master spirits will not touch the people themselves... But numerous desperate spirits continue to plunge into the forbidden domains in search of treasures and magical artifacts, and the spirits are angry with all mankind for this!

Features of the addition

The basic rules of "Destinies" remain the same: players will take turns to explore a dark fantasy world, interact with NPCs, interact with items and fight enemies, all in order to find their secret before the rest of the team. Purpose And yet, the addition has several innovations.

1. New campaign with 4 scenarios. Immerse yourself in a world inspired by fairy tales on a huge new map with many characters, encounters and encounters that become more and more exciting with each subsequent chapter.
2. New travel mechanics. On tiles, you can now find a special boot symbol, symbolizing an untrodden path. Travels along such a path will occupy the entire course of the hero, and can lead to completely unexpected places.
3. Numerous labyrinths: river, forest and even cave! During the game, you will not only get into the confusing paths of the labyrinths, but you will find fragments of the labyrinth maps that will help you find a safe way out of them.
4. Encounters - new random events. Like the rest of the events in the first step of the player`s turn, encounters are played out as directed by the application. You can meet both good non-player characters, such as a traveling salesman, and angry forest creatures.
5. New Heroes, Destinies and Items. New characters, both playable and non-playable, are presented in the expansion with 14 detailed figures, including an enlarged boss. But in addition to them, a huge new map and half a hundred new quest items await you. All non-game characters, items and locations may seem insignificant to you at first, but as the story progresses, you will understand their significance when you next meet them in the game.

"Destinies" system

• Finding your Purpose - each player at the beginning of the passage chooses a character without reading the back of the card. Only after choosing, you can read the backstory of your hero and the two possible paths that will lead you to the embodiment of destiny. Throughout the game, you will interact with various non-player characters, visit numerous locations, and explore areas in search of your Destination, which must be kept a secret from the rest of the players.
• The sandbox genre - the game gives you complete freedom in terms of what to use, who to talk to and what locations to visit, and at the same time it will give hints about the realization of the Destination. The goal of the game is to fulfill your Destiny before the rest of the participants. Even if you reach your endgame in this story at some point, other players can still beat you if they are more prepared. At the same time, remember: the fate of the entire game world depends on the decisions of the chosen ones, and even if you go on a personal quest to find the Destiny, your actions will have consequences for all heroes and ordinary inhabitants of the world.
• Scan&Play mechanics - all item cards in the game have qr codes, and if you decide to use one of them in a certain situation, you have to scan the code in the app, which will indicate the consequences of using the item in this situation. Some characters can also give you hints about the direction of further destination searches: to do this, you must select the appropriate option during the dialogue and scan the code of one of the paths on the face of your destination card. The answer of the characters will be rather a hint and will not reveal your secret purpose to other participants.
• Dice Checks - during the game, you will improve the skills of your characters, which will require different results on the dice to receive successes during checks. Players have 2 personal primary dice that are always available for challenges, and 3 effort dice that drain after use and regenerate one at a time at the start of the player`s turn.
• Immense Replayability and Variation - the game has a huge number of optional Destinations to find locations, plots and characters, as well as random events that will affect your sense of the world and help you immerse yourself in the story. The accompanying application will be responsible for saving the passage and combining all elements of the plot, and it will also generate random events during the game.
