Fantasy Realms: The Cursed Hoard

About this expansion

Fantasy Realms: The Cursed Hoard is a card game for 3-6 players that plays in about 30 minutes. It expands the acclaimed Fantasy Realms experience with two modular additions that can be used separately or together.

The core challenge is simple to learn: draw one card from the deck or discard area, then discard one card. Your goal is to create the strongest possible hand by combining cards with the most effective bonuses and interactions.

The Cursed Items expansion introduces a new deck of item cards. Each player takes one item and may use it whenever they wish to trigger a powerful effect. These effects can include taking double turns, hiding discarded cards, or skipping the discard phase to keep an extra card.

Power comes at a cost. Whenever a Cursed Item is used, it becomes negative points at the end of the game. The more powerful the effect, the more points you lose, creating a sharp choice between improving your hand now and protecting your final score.

• Cursed Items: Use flexible effects, then accept their end-game penalty.
• Three New Suits: Add Buildings, mythical Outsiders, and the Undead to your realms.
• Modular play: Combine either expansion with the original game, or use both together.

With 47 cards included, Fantasy Realms: The Cursed Hoard adds new ways to develop your realm and shape your strategy. Decide which combinations are worth pursuing, when to use a dangerous item, and how much risk your final hand can withstand.
