HEL: The Last Saga

HEL: The Last Saga is a semi-cooperative survival horror viking board game, created by the duo behind SMOG: Rise of Moloch by CMON, game designer David Rakoto and art director Christophe Madura. The game offers each player the chance to lead a small group of survivors, each with their own background and secret motives. The players must cooperate if they want to survive the immediate dangers of cold, hunger and external threats, but they will also have to complete their inner quest to be worthy of the Saga that will retain their name. The mechanisms mix resource management, worker placement but also secret objectives and combat. Storytelling and background are ubiquitous and replayability comes from different introductions, group combinations and motivations with each new game. Thus, the mystery of the missing settlers will never be the same from one game to another.
