Description
Dead Cells: The Rogue-Lite Board Game is a cooperative experience by the Metroidvania genre. Explore the ever-changing island of Dead Cells in this ruthless dungeon crawler. Explore. Kill. Die. Mutate. Repeat.
1. Explore - Choose your path wisely within a sprawling, ever-changing castle! Each Biome has different paths with randomly drawn tiles that change every Run.
2. Kill - Each Beheaded has a different strength, and a unique deck of Combat cards. Combine your special skills, attacks, and Equipment to defeat the Enemies along your path!
3. Die - In such a hostile environment, death is inevitable! Yes, you'll lose almost everything you gained this Run, but your story isn't over yet. You still get to spend your Cells on permanent mutations! You've gotta die to grow stronger.
4. Mutate - Spend Cells you collected during your Run with The Collector. Unlock blueprints to grow your loot deck and buy permanent mutations that will give you power . . . Forever.
5. Repeat - Death is not the end! Come back stronger to go futher and deeper into the Island. Will you reach the infamous Hand of the King? And is it really the end?
