Board Game Brawler ‘Monolith Arena’ Arrives November 28th

Sep 29, 2018

Portal Games will be debuting Monolith Arena at Spiel in Essen next month but, thankfully for those who can’t make it to Germany, the tactical brawling game will arrive on North American shores on November 28th. In the game up to four players will represent various factions and their champions as they fight for glory and the very power of the Monolith. Monolith Arena is for two to four players, ages 10+, plays in around 30-45 minutes, and will carry an MSRP of $50.00.

From Portal Games:

The primeval Monoliths, older than the oldest chronicles and songs. These holy stones’ thirst for the blood of warriors is never quenched.

Whenever the blood-red comet adorns the sky, the greatest warriors from the distant corners of the world gather to fight in the deadly olympics. Whoever you are, however far you’ve traveled, you are free to join the competition with your team and challenge the champions of the arena.

Win for glory, for your leaders and gods, or for the power of the Monolith itself – or relinquish your place to someone better!

Monolith Arena is a tactical game in which champions from different factions clash with one another upon the arena grounds. During the game players attack the Champions and Banner of the enemy faction. The goal of the game is to eliminate the other player’s Banner. The player who decreases the enemy Banner Hit Points to 0 wins the game. If at the end of the game none of the Banners have been eliminated, the players compare the current Hit Point levels of their Banners. The player whose Banner received the least damage (has the highest Hit Point level) wins the game.

Monolith Arena will debut at Essen Spiel 2018, in English, Polish and German version, for European market. US release will be on November 28th.
