Blood Rage

Blood Rage is a Viking board game created by acclaimed game designer Eric M Lang. In this fast-paced yet highly strategic game, 2 to 4 players take control of Viking clans, invading, pillaging and battling in a quest to gain as much glory as possible before Ragnarok finally consumes the land! Most player strategies are guided by the cards drafted at the beginning of each of the three game rounds (or Ages). These “Gods Gifts” grant your numerous boons for your clan including: increased Viking strength and devious battle strategies, upgrades to your clan or even the aid of legendary creatures from Norse mythology. They may also include various quests from dominating specific provinces to having lots of your vikings sent to Valhalla.

Most of these cards are aligned with one of the Norse gods, hinting at the kind of strategy they support. For example, Thor gives more glory for victory in battle, Heimdall grants you foresight and surprises, Tyr strengthens you in battle while the trickster Loki actually rewards you for losing battles, or punishes the winner.

Players 2-4 Playing Time 60-90 minutes Suggested ages 10+
