Description

Volume III Core box in the HEXplore It series: Adventure awaits in the desolate region of Shurax!

HEXplore It is a hero-building adventure board game system. The Sands of Shurax is our third title in the series. It is both a stand-alone game and an expansion to the first and second volumes.

Players select their heroes by combining two character options: their Role and Race. This combination drives their strengths, weaknesses, and defines their special abilities.

Journey into an entrancing land full of danger and intrigue. Collect Ravager Crystals and interact within a rich and diverse world, directing your actions toward one of four end scenarios. There are hundreds of unique scenarios that can affect each game.

Make your way across the desert to perform Missions, work with Caravan Masters, or ply your trade by gambling or even enter the gladiatorial arenas.

Battle through a variety of Encounters while traveling, or move carefully and see what other Discoveries you might find. To save the City-States, you must build your heroes and gain power as quickly as you can.

Can you save Shurax from the titanic Ravager?
