12 Realms is a language independent fantasy game currently running on Kickstarter from MAGE Company. As a print and play game released in 2010 the game, for one to six players, inspired a solid following (although it’s taking me some time to come to grips with d’Artagnan as a squirrel) by mashing together a wide variety of heroes from literature and fables as they look to cooperatively battle the dark lords bent on the domination of twelve realms. Now the opportunity is here to back the new project for a boxed edition which includes miniature figures to bring even more visual pizzazz to the proceedings.
From MAGE Company:
Siegfried, Snow White, D’Artagnan, Red Riding Hood, and the other heroes of the 12 Realms are being reunited for one last great adventure. The Dark Lords have joined forces to completely conquer and subjugate all the known Lands, and only the combined efforts of all the greatest heroes can halt their nefarious plan.
12 Realms is a fast and lighthearted cooperative game for 1-6 players. All players must band together to stop the Dark Lords’ overwhelming hordes from pillaging the 12 Realms. Individual invaders can be defeated by using each hero’s different talents, but to vanquish the Dark Lords you must claim a powerful artifact.
In their quest to stop the invasion, the heroes can travel together between different lands, or they can try to single-handedly defend a Realm. Each of the 12 Realms is an individual land, with different treasures and events, and populated by unique creatures.
