Hark, people, brave and small!

 You're hereby invited to the His Majesty's grand Combo Party! Recruit characters to your personal tableau, making sure to take note of the unique abilities and scoring conditions each one offers.

Players will take turns buying cards from either the Village or Castle (depending on where the Messenger pawn is) and placing them in their personal tableau, making sure to follow these placement rules:

- Each card after the first must be orthogonally placed to at least one other card in your tableau
- At the end of the game your tableau must be a 3x3 grid of cards

Afterwards, trigger the card's ability. The game ends once all players have built their 9-card tableaus. Score points based on each card's end-game scoring conditions and the player with the most points wins!

  • BUILD YOUR PERFECT TABLEAU: Recruit characters from the Village or Castle to create a 3x3 grid of cards in your personal tableau. Each card offers unique abilities and end-game scoring conditions!
  • STRATEGIC CARD COMBINATIONS: Master the art of combos by strategically placing your cards and triggering their abilities to rack up the most points by the end of the game.
  • PLAYER AGENCY & FLEXIBILITY: Use the Messenger pawn to switch between the Village and Castle markets and wipe the board to gain access to fresh cards and maximize your strategic choices.
  • EASY-TO-LEARN, QUICK TO PLAY: With clear symbology and a helpful game aid, Castle Combo is perfect for family game nights or competitive sessions with friends. Playable in about 20-30 minutes.
  • PERFECT FOR FAMILY GAME NIGHT: A light yet challenging game designed for 2-4 players, Castle Combo offers a mix of strategy and luck in every round. Ideal for ages 8 and up!
