About the game
Four factions of warriors battle to survive on a doomed land that will be destroyed piece by piece, taking its occupants with it. You must strategize to survive—by fleeing, fighting or sacrificing your weakest members—whatever you must do to be the last one left standing when the land around you has been annihilated. Be the last one standing in a strategic fight to survive The Final Battle Royale! •On each turn, you can move three spaces and/or battle an opponent. •Watch as the Event Tracker counts down to the removal of one of the game board zones—get out before you lose members of your faction or choose to sacrifice those pieces. •When a zone is removed, a new Card is turned over to indicate the next zone to be removed. •Use Power Stones to make more moves or help win battles. •When you land in a space on the Game Board next to another player’s faction member, you can choose to battle. •To battle, each player involved rolls their Battle Die. The value they rolled, plus the value of their faction member, is their battle power. The player with the highest battle power wins the battle. The losing piece is removed from the Game Board. The last player with a faction member(s) left on the Game Board is the winner of The Final Battle Royale! -description from publisher

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 Reign for ages 8 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.
