Zogar's Gaze is a board game released in 2013 for 1–5 players, 40 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. It was designed by Jason Glover and its main mechanics are Set Collection, Push Your Luck, and Dice Rolling.
Draw a random race and class card and keep your identity a secret. Then you adventure into Zogar’s Dungeon and attempt to collect the objects you need to meet your two separate win conditions. You must enter the dungeon on your turn but you can leave whenever you want. Press your luck and try to collect as much loot as you can, but be aware, Zogar’s minions are wandering about and you might lose all you have gained if you perish. In addition Zogar’s all seeing eyes are protecting his lair and if too many are revealed, than every player loses and Zogar wins the game. Muhahahaha! Do not fear; there is also a market where you can secretly turn in loot you do not need for items that can save your life from the dangers below. This is a 1-4 player game where players attempt to meet certain win conditions based on their race and class. The first player to meet these conditions wins. Try and figure out who the other players are and attempt to slow them down. The game plays quickly with a 4 player game lasting between 30-45 minutes.
Zogar's Gaze 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 Zogar's Gaze is 40 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 Zogar's Gaze 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.
Zogar's Gaze has a complexity rating of 1.3 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light 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.
