For an age, the tower lay in ruins. Unbeknownst to the people of the realm, a great evil stirred in its bowels. It started with strange sightings: a flock of crows flying in circles until they dropped from the sky, the lake frozen solid in the height of summer. In time, they could not deny that which they most feared. The evil had not been vanquished. The darkness would soon fall again. The tower will rise.
A "sequel" to the 1981 grail game, Return to Dark Tower is a game for 1-4 players who take the role of heroes. Together, they gather resources, cleanse buildings, defeat monsters, and undertake quests to build up their strength and discern what foe ultimately awaits them. When the heroes face the tower, the game shifts into its dramatic second act, where the players have one chance to defeat the enemy once and for all. The game features cooperative and competitive play. The game features traditional game mechanisms, such as engine building and resource management, paired with a technological interface unlike any seen before in games, including the titular tower, which holds more than a few secrets.
Carnival of Chaos is an expansion for Thunder Road: Vendetta (or Thunder Road: Vendetta ? Maximum Chrome) that offers a new way to play. Players race their cars into the arena, collecting wild party favors, powerful super-weapons, and precious scrap along the way. This expansion also includes a full set of vehicles and a dashboard, so you can play with a fifth player using this expansion or in the regular game.
Unlike a regular game of Thunder Road: Vendetta, the winner of the Carnival of Chaos is the surviving player who has the most scrap at the end of the game. There is no finish line.
Thunder Road: Vendetta is a revved-up restoration of the classic 1986 game of mayhem on the asphalt. Grab your crew, roll your dice, race your cars, shoot your guns, and try not to get wrecked.
This new version features exciting new additions, including random hazard tokens, such as wrecks, oil slicks, and more. Damage isn't merely one and done. Now, you'll draw damage tokens with exciting effects that can send your car careening across the board. You'll also have more choices on your turn, assigning one of your dice to your command board to repair damage, nitro boost, or send out your attack copter to fire away.
This edition of the core game has a free Extra Ammo deck in it, and it's vehicles have an alternate wash.
