The Masters' Trials: Wrath of Magmaroth

About the game

What is The Masters' Trials: Wrath of Magmaroth?

The legend says that in a time of grave danger, masters of the elemental orders will leave their ancestral retreats and join forces to restore peace to the world. From the once-dormant Tekirin volcano, the vengeful Magmaroth has emerged. Born of earth and fire, its goal is to mold the world to its image: primal and ruthless. The time is now for the masters to face their destiny. The Masters' Trials: Wrath of Magmaroth is a cooperative dice-crafting game in which players represent the masters from the orders that have banded together to face the evil elemental. Each player has a board that represents their character and five dice which they use to apply the effects of their abilities. Each round, they face new minions, generate mana, and get to master new abilities, adding them on their characters. After ten rounds, they come face-to-face with the powerful Magmaroth, which they have to defeat before the whole volcano collapses around them. The Masters' Trials uses the dice-crafting mechanism made popular in the game Dice City but in a new and exciting way. Each player's character consists of three different boards that represent their class, order, and weapon. These boards determine their initial abilities as well as the ones that the players can master during the game. By combining them in different ways, you can create new characters, allowing for a different experience in each game! Build your character the best way possible, work together with your fellow players, roll your dice, and use the powerful techniques you have mastered in order to defeat Magmaroth before he destroys everything!
