About the game
This pack will make all 4 characters, including Reize, Baz, Mr. Hat, and Phantom Striker available as playable Heroes as well as Mid-Stage Bosses and end-of-the-dungeon Bosses! As heroes, they all come with their own unique abilities and stats: - Reize can use his boomerang to attack an enemy at range, and if the strike hits then you can attack that enemy or another enemy in the space for a second attack. - Baz can use his Swing Slam ability to move two spaces and attack all enemies in that space. - Mr. Hat can mimic the special ability of any hero he shares a space with, making him the ultimate ability doppelganger. - Phantom Striker can spend gold to freely teleport around the board, giving him an unprecedented amount of mobility! As Mid-Stage Bosses, they work differently than a normal boss. Typically you need to move through the entire dungeon to finally face one of the Order of No Quarter, but not these wandering vagabonds! They'll attack you mid dungeon, depending on whether or not they are spawned from the Spawn Card Deck. Once they are spawned onto the board, you start drawing their cards like you would during a normal boss fight, once after every boss...the difference is that you'll also have to contend with the stage and enemies themselves as well! They will also be usable as end-of-the-dungeon Bosses. -description from Kickstarter page
