Hero Realms: Character Pack – Monk is an expansion for Hero Realms released in 2025 for 1–6 players, 20–30 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. Its main mechanics are Deck, Bag, and Pool Building.
Even more classes! Play Hero Realms as an Alchemist, Barbarian (both included in Hero Realms: Dungeons), Bard, Monk, Druid or the (KS exclusive) Necromancer! Character Packs add a cool new dimension to player vs player games. Each match-up is a unique challenge which will require different strategies. When playing a cooperative campaign (either Ruins of Thandar or Dungeons), your Character Pack represents the starting point for your character that you will customize over time. This pack introduces the monk. The mental discipline, acrobatic skills and combat prowess of these spiritual warriors is legendary. As a Monk, you will deliver precision strikes and armor-crushing blows with your bare hands. You'll play your Tao Lu cards in combination to deal devastating damage to your opponent and heal yourself.
Hero Realms: Character Pack – Monk supports 1–6 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.
