Champions of Midgard

Champions of Midgard is a medium-complexity board game that takes players back to Viking times, where each player takes on the role of the leader of a clan. Players arrive in a port city threatened by monsters from Norse mythology, such as trolls and draugr, and must join forces to defend it. By defeating these terrifying creatures, players accumulate glory and earn the blessing of the gods. The game stands out for its allocation of workers, which allows participants to collect resources and recruit warriors, essential to their adventures. Players can send their warriors to neighboring villages or cross the seas in search of epic battles. The resources obtained are essential for carving runes, building ships and supporting their followers. Battles are fought with customized dice that represent the bravery of Viking warriors. At the end of the match, the player who has accumulated the most glory is crowned as Jarl, becoming the true champion of Midgard. Each move offers a rich and immersive experience, full of strategy and emotion.
