About the game
Eleven brave heroes set out to infiltrate Borabarad's tower and break its curse, but now they are all dead. All but you! As the last survivor, you must now face the dangers of the tower alone to complete the mission! Borbarads Fluch is a solo adventure for Aventuria - The Adventure Card Game. Assemble the Archmage's cursed Mage Tower from a total of 30 tower cards and send your hero to its deadly floors. Your goal is to find out what Borbarad's curse is all about and save all of South Aventuria from a devastating catastrophe. Between you and your goal stands the mysterious tower and its guards and traps, and a single hero can only find certain death here. Fortunately, death in this wretched place, steeped in ancient magic, is only the beginning! It allows you to learn from the mistakes of the past as you delve deeper and deeper into the tower to unlock its disturbing secrets. This adventure was deliberately designed for a single hero and contains numerous game mechanics to make the solo game entertaining and diversionary, but can also be mastered by entire groups of heroes with great fun. A large-format tower plan with four deadly floors, study cards, rules for hunger and thirst and many other game elements ensure that every new advance into the Mage Tower is exciting and challenging and you never know exactly what you will be up against next time. —description from the publisher (translated)
