Flame & Forge is a Worker placement, deck-building, push-your-luck full of interesting choices! We are dwarfs marching into a city on flames to raid resources, forge powerful weapons and challenge monsters — and maybe convince them to join your side of the fight!

In your turn pick one of your dwarfs from your campfire and place them on the outskirt city tiles in the first spot to the left of the chosen tile and take ALL visible actions in this tile AND take damage to remove fire tokens, if another player places their dwarf in the same tile they may perform less actions than you. In your next turn, your options will be reduced: the next tile must be up by one line closer to the dragon's castle and adjacent to the tile your previously placed your dwarf. Once all of your dwarfs are out you retrieve them all and start from the bottom again.

Possible actions a tile can have (usually around 2-3 actions):

• Get a Gem

• Spend Gems to forge a weapon card

• Spend Gems to advance in the knowledge track

• Perform a ranged attack

• Fight a monsters on the same tile

• Grant a success hit on a attack

• Retire a card from your deck

• Heal 1 damage

In the knowledge track you can also upgrade your dwarf workers to special dwarfs that give you actions, and also give special abilities to be used when they all return to you after they are all out.

A big element of the game is the combat system that allow for you to hit cards (in a push your luck) where the damage you deal and the damage you take comes from your own deck. Weapons you forge and monsters you defeat also go to your deck along with cards that will allow for the most varied actions (as long as you survive the fight). Many times when battling you need to decide to either flee and perform the actions or risk it all to try and defeat the monster.

The dragon fights back putting fire to the city. If any tile ends up with 3 fires on it is destroyed, players will immediately lose the game if 7 city tiles are destroyed.

The game ends in victory when the dragon is defeated by one of the players.
