About this board game

Townsfolk Tussle is a cooperative boss battler for 1–5 players, with games lasting about 200 minutes. After the beloved sheriff of Eureka Springs dies, Ruffians descend on the defenseless town, and its townsfolk must stand together to fight back.

Across each game, your goal is to defeat four unique Ruffians, with every opponent tougher than the last. Success depends on building up your townsfolk, exploring Eureka Springs, and finding strategies that can overcome each distinctive hoodlum.

As the town’s defenders, you and your fellow players face a series of dangerous troublemakers. Work together to wallop them into oblivion while developing your characters and preparing for increasingly difficult encounters.

  • Cooperative play: Join forces with other townsfolk against the invading Ruffians.
  • Boss-battler structure: Take on four unique opponents, each tougher than the one before.
  • Character development: Build up your townsfolk with gear as the game progresses.
  • Strategic variety: Concoct unique plans to deal with an assortment of unusual hoodlums.

The sheriff’s badge is more than a symbol: if you play your cards right, you may prove yourself worthy of becoming Eureka Springs’ new sheriff. Every victory brings the town closer to safety, while every Ruffian offers a fresh challenge to overcome.

With its team-based premise, distinctive bosses, gear-focused progression, and exploration of Eureka Springs, Townsfolk Tussle combines a lighthearted town-defense theme with a substantial cooperative challenge for groups ready to take on a succession of formidable foes.
