Conan: The Conqueror is an expansion for Conan released in 2021 for 1–5 players, 60–120 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. It was designed by Frédéric Henry, Matthew John, Dan Mauric, and Ken Meyri and its main mechanics are Variable Player Powers, Player Elimination, and Area Movement.
Not only is the Adventure Mode (our original one vs many system) gameplay you know and love making its return, but we’re also adding a revised version of the solo/co-op rules featured in Conan: The Monolith Sourcebook. Regardless of which version of Conan you own or plan to purchase, all of the new content will pair perfectly with what you have. With the new mega-Conqueror expansion you’ll be able to enter the savage worlds and raise your own bloodied sword. —description from the publisher
Conan: The Conqueror supports 1–5 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Conan: The Conqueror is 60–120 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Conan: The Conqueror for ages 12 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Conan: The Conqueror has a complexity rating of 3.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-weight game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
