Theme: Stained Glass

Leave your nobility at the door in this lighthearted game of hilarious backstabbery! Use any tool to find Excalibur and keep it safe in your “virtuous” hands.

Excalibur is a party game filled with bluffing and subterfuge. Draw tiles from Avalon to find Excalibur, then use the powers of Arthurian legends to keep it safe from the other would-be kings 'round the table!

During each round, players simultaneously draw chips from the 3 regions of Avalon on the table and then reveal them one by one, resolving their effects and discarding them. The game ends when a region of Avalon has no more chips. A player must hold the Excalibur chip to win, otherwise everyone loses.

Draft dice and use the tools-of-the-trade in Sagrada to carefully construct your stained glass window masterpiece.

In more detail, each player builds a stained glass window by building up a grid of dice on their player board. Each board has some restrictions on which color or shade (value) of die can be placed there. Dice of the same shade or color may never be placed next to each other. Dice are drafted in player order, with the start player rotating each round, snaking back around after the last player drafts two dice. Scoring is variable per game based on achieving various patterns and varieties of placement...as well as bonus points for dark shades of a particular hidden goal color.

Special tools can be used to help you break the rules by spending skill tokens; once a tool is used, it then requires more skill tokens for the other players to use them.

The highest scoring window artisan wins!
