Read the full game description
RuneScape Kingdoms: Shadow of Elvarg is a cooperative campaign board game set in Gielinor. During exploration, players move through an open world, train skills, gather resources, complete quests, and prepare for threats that escalate on their own timetable. Each chapter culminates in a boss battle on a dedicated board, while character progress and equipment carry forward through the linked adventures. Flexible roles let the group change direction without fixed classes, and the full campaign can be played solo or with up to five adventurers.
