About the Game

In a world where heroes are celebrated, you are not the hero – you are the unsung hero of the realm. Choose your role as a townsfolk character and work with your fellow players to survive and lead the heroes to beat the Big Bad Elder Dragon.

Gameplay: In "Not A Hero," players harness the power of their decks each turn, strategically collecting valuable information and gold. These precious resources empower their townsfolk to wield influence over the heroes, guiding them to embark on quests and enhancing their abilities and skills. But beware! As heroes conquer monsters, unearth treasures, and accomplish quests, the looming Elder Dragon threat intensifies. Mismanagement of the heroes can trigger devastating strikes, leading to the town's destruction and ultimate defeat. The townspeople's path to victory lies in nurturing their heroes to the point where they become mighty enough to vanquish the Elder Dragon.
