About this board game
¡Cobardes! is a fast, simple two-player intuition game that takes about 15 minutes to play, with rival Princes competing to claim the Crown.
While the village and court mourn the deceased King, each heir is focused on gaining the throne. Every coward Prince recruits warriors and receives the support of a villain and a courtier in each battle.
A battle unfolds through different, subsequent combats. In every combat, one warrior from each side faces the other. Their strength determines who prevails, but victory requires more than simply being stronger.
- Two players compete as rival Princes.
- Each Prince recruits warriors and receives support from a villain and a courtier.
- Battles are resolved through a series of combats between opposing warriors.
- A warrior must overcome the opposing warrior by 2 or more points of strength to win the combat.
When a warrior wins a combat by the required margin, that result grants the victory in the battle to their Prince. This creates a tense contest of intuition as each player seeks the right path through the successive confrontations.
In ¡Cobardes!, the game and the Crown go to the player who achieves victory in three battles. There is also an even more direct route to power: defeat the rival Prince on the battlefield.
Released in 2017, ¡Cobardes! offers a compact duel built around opposing warriors, decisive strength differences, and a clear race for royal victory.
