Pixel Glory: Light & Shadow

About this board game

Pixel Glory: Light & Shadow is a 2018 stand-alone sequel and expansion for 1–4 players, with games lasting around 30 minutes.

Take on the role of a wizard pursuing fame, admiration, and personal gain. Although the quest is framed as a noble mission to save a nearby village, rival wizards are just as eager to outmaneuver one another and claim the rewards.

The game unfolds across two distinct phases. In the town phase, players draft spells through an auction mechanic, competing to learn the most useful magic and shape their decks for the challenges ahead.

During the revamped dungeon phase, the wizards work together to defeat sinister monsters. Cooperation only goes so far, however: the player who deals the lethal blow earns the fame, creating tense competition, clever timing, and opportunities for kill-stealing.

• Draft spells using an auction system.
• Build decks for the dungeon phase.
• Battle monsters while competing for the final blow.
• Explore Light and Shadow as two new elements.
• Use the new player health system.

Pixel Glory: Light & Shadow adds flexible ways to play, including cooperative, hidden traitor, and solo modes. Whether you cooperate against the dungeon, conceal your true allegiance, or face the challenge alone, every spell choice can affect your path to glory.

With players fighting over both spells and fame, each session combines auction decisions, deck preparation, dungeon teamwork, and direct rivalry in a compact fantasy adventure.
