About the game
The Queen has called on her fearless knights to help unite the kingdom. In this cooperative game, players must build a safe path across the green fields of Dragonwood while dashing past diving dragons! Will you make it before you run out of resources? Or will the dragons be victorious? In Dragon Dash, players take turns drawing tiles and placing paths to connect both sides of the board and randomly placing dragon tiles with the roll of the dice. Players must connect both sides of the board with one continuous path to win. If the dragons block the path so that it cannot connect, the game is lost. Along the way, players may collect knight's gear (shield, helmet and sword) which may be used to defeat dragons who may attempt to destroy their paths.
