Fantasy Defense: The Stone King

About this expansion

Fantasy Defense: The Stone King is a campaign expansion for 1–2 players, with games lasting about 20 minutes. Released in 2017, it adds new units, scenarios, and rules that take the battle in new directions.

The Stone King Campaign unfolds across eight hidden chapters. Rather than opening every component at once, players must meet the unlock condition printed on each chapter before opening it. This gradual structure lets the experience build from one chapter to the next.

Every chapter contains two types of cards. The story card reveals more of the Fantasy Defense world through notes and narrative snippets, while the rules card introduces mechanisms and concepts for using the newly unlocked components.

• Eight hidden campaign chapters with individual unlock conditions
• New units and scenarios
• Story cards that advance the narrative
• Rules cards that introduce new mechanisms and concepts

The campaign is designed for players who have already figured out the basic gameplay of Fantasy Defense and want a more varied and challenging experience. Its changing rules and additions create a structured way to explore the expansion while keeping each chapter focused on the material just revealed.

Although it uses a progressive unlock system, Fantasy Defense: The Stone King is not a legacy game. After completing the campaign, you can return to the original version, replace the cards in their envelopes and begin again, or mix and match different elements to customize future games.
