WizKids will release a Dungeons & Dragons Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage Adventure System Board Game in both standard and premium editions in March.
This game is of course based on the Wizards of the Coast’s Dungeons & Dragons Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage upcoming adventure book where players enter the dungeon Undermountain and the subterranean refuge of Skullport, to take on the mad Wizard Halaster Blackcoak.
In the board game, adventurers explore and search for treasure while navigating traps and dealing with monsters. The game includes multiple scenarios, quest, and gameplay designed for a single player or a cooperative group of 2 – 5 players. There are new environment cards that get replaced when a new environment card is drawn, and new bane/boon cards, some of which have an effect that will require a new draw of the cards, to resolve the bane/boon effect.
The board game is set to include, 42 single-colored* miniatures, 5 hero tiles, 4 villain tiles, 20-sided die, 40 interlocking dungeon tiles, 5 double-sized interlocking special tiles, 225 cards, over 300 tokens, an adventure book, and a rulebook. The game is for 1 – 5 players, ages 14 and up, and plays in 1+ hour.
* There is both a Standard Edition and a Premium edition. The Premium edition includes the fully-painted miniatures option, while the Standard has a single-color miniature option. Standard MSRP is $79.99. The Premium edition has an MSRP of $159.99.
Like other adventure systems games, this can be combined with the Tomb of Annihilation, Temple of Elemental Evil, The Legend of Drizzt, Castle Ravenloft, and Wrath of Ashardalon games.
