Insurrection

About the game

What is Insurrection?

"In a Shadowed land, where only darkness exists, Queen Kristin Weaves her web, within the mists. A gift from Tore, corrupted by the night, A tainted mark to drown the light. But one alone won’t serve her right, She yearns for ten to claim the night. Her loyal thralls obey her call, While rebels rise to break her wall. The fate of realms, both dark and light, Now rests on you - Choose wrong or right." In Insurrection, you play a Rebel Leader who rises against the tyrannical Queen Kristin. On the path to Kristin’s Keep, you will recruit troops to build the best army possible from your hand of cards. Each of these cards will earn you points at the end of the game. How the game ends depends on the players. Either the Rebels manage to overthrow Kristin, or Kristin retains her throne if she manages to gather 10 Corruption marks. Will you choose to bet on the Good side and defeat Kristin, or conspire with the forces of Evil and wager on the victory of the Evil Queen? —description from the publisher
