Middara Board Game: Unintentional Malum Act 1

About The Game

Middara is a truly epic and massive, fully-cooperative, high-fantasy game.

With its inspiration deeply rooted in JRPG-tactics games, Middara is a unique strategic experience that blends hundreds of illustrations with a narrative that spans the length of four novels-worth of content.

Using Middara Board Game: Unintentional Malum Act 1's 500 page Adventure Book, you and your party will navigate your way through Middara's rich story-driven universe.

What's around the corner? Could it be Loot? What if it's a trap? Maybe it's some narrative that will progress the story? More monsters, more dungeon? All of the above? While playing Encounters, players will reveal hidden secrets when instructed to do so using the Red Revealer.

No mindless grinding: none of the 60+ Encounters in Act 1 will ever be played twice. Whether you win or lose, the story will continue and the story will change. You may succeed a critical Skill Check in a dazzling spectacle of glory. Or you may fail it horrendously. Either way, each outcome will have its own ramifications that will echo throughout your campaign.

Middara Board Game: Unintentional Malum Act 1 is not for the faint of heart: in true RPG fashion, Middara is meant to be played in 3-4 hour sessions weekly over the course of 6 to 8 months.

Middara is a one-of-a-kind take on fantasy that blends eastern art styles and western culture. No goblins, no trolls, no orcs. No Gygaxian beastery, blessed may he be. Instead, Middara is an alternate-world fantasy setting exisiting alongside our very own Earth.

Middara proudly contains no character classes or archetypes, but instead uses a "point-buy" leveling system that allows players to mix and match the hundreds of Items and Disciplines in whichever combination they so desire.

Want to play a stealthy rogue that dual-wields flintlocks, casts blood-magic, and can fly? Go for it. How about a healer clad in platemail that carries a scythe, summons espers from another realm, and can manipulate time? Why not?

Middara : Unintentional Malum - Act I contains 36 double-sided map tiles that are used to created your "dungeons". Each Encounter Setup in the Adventure Book will instruct you on how to lay out these tiles to begin playing. Ancient libraries, treacherous cliffsides, dank caverns, and murky swamps are just a few of the landscapes you'll explore.

There are 17 custom engraved dice included in the game. These dice are used when taking Actions and making Skill Checks. They are separated by color to denote what dice a player uses when making a roll.
