In this asymmetrical strategy game: The Damsel’s Tale, Cinder the Dragon is trying to alert his mother to the presence of a devious knight sent to steal from their ancestral treasure pile.

In a battle of wits players must choose a side and draw cards for the Adventurer to delve deeper toward the treasure, while Cinder must protect his home until his mother arrives.

Strategy and Stealth is key to winning as the game board is filled with opportunities to take cover or to make noise so you must choose your path carefully to avoid panicking the baby dragons cries for help.

Red Genie Games was founded in 2015 when Alex Wyntter and Ben Hoban met at a local board game design incubator in Melbourne, Australia.

The Brigade was the duos first breakout hit on Kickstarter a year later.

The original theme of Fantasy Firefighting and the comedic setting provided by writer Ivan Nevill provided a great base for what would become “The Vague World” a narrative board game universe that has shared characters, settings and stories across 4 Kickstarter campaigns.

Kickstart Gaming will be reviewing this game very soon
