Fool’s Blade

About this board game

Fool’s Blade is a fast-paced, comedically chaotic sword-crafting card game for 2–4 players, with games lasting about 80 minutes.

Choose a character with a distinctive strategy and ability, then compete to become the ultimate champion. Options include the Pickpocket, Sketchy Salesman, Dumpster Diver, and Guy with a Gun, among many others.

At the Tavern, players can relax, trade, steal, bully, and pick fights by playing any number of friendship-altering Tavern cards. It is a place for social scheming before heading back out in search of treasure.

At the Forge, create more than 30,000 different absurd sword combinations. Crafted weapons can feature varying effects, abilities, and elemental power, giving your character new ways to face the dangers ahead.

When you go questing, discover powerful Spells to cast and Gear to equip. These cards can protect and empower you, but a quest may also reveal a dangerous Curse card.

Monster battles bring a mischievous twist. Slay monsters to activate their win effect, while rival adventurers can enhance a monster’s abilities and force you to activate its lose effect.

• Choose from a range of distinctive characters.
• Craft absurd swords from over 30,000 possible combinations.
• Use Spells, Gear, Tavern cards, and sabotage to shape the adventure.
• Defeat monsters to claim powerful loot, legendary weapon pieces, and luxurious trinkets.

Return to the Tavern with a trove of treasures and trophies—or bitter hatred toward your friends—and do it all over again. With its blend of crafting, questing, conflict, and chaos, Fool’s Blade turns every adventure into a race for endless loot.
