Crimson Company: Collector’s Box

About this board game

Crimson Company: Collector’s Box is a fantasy card game for 1–4 players, with matches lasting around 45 minutes. Two opposing players—or larger groups using the included modes—assemble armies of sellswords and compete to conquer two of the three castles at the center of the game.

Each character card combines a strength value with a unique effect. Some effects happen immediately when a card is played, while others trigger during specific phases. Four randomly drawn characters are placed on offer, creating a changing selection of warriors, merchants, mythical creatures, and other recruits.

The game’s distinctive bidding system turns every offer into a tense decision. You may bid coins on one available card at a time. Your opponent then chooses whether to pay you, doubling the coins you bid, or pass and allow you to play the card. Use your resources carefully as you build your forces across the castle lanes.

A lane is scored once a player owns at least four cards in it. The player with the greater strength in that lane conquers its castle, and the first player to conquer two castles wins the match. With shifting card effects and direct competition over every offer, Crimson Company rewards clever timing and calculated risks.

This Collector’s Box combines the base edition with The Other Side, Ragnarok, and the 4-player upgrade. It also includes modes for solo play, 2vs2, and free-for-all games for three or four players.
