Atlantis Rising XP: Monstrosities (KS Ally Edition)

This is the KS Ally Pledge that contains the Atlantis Rising: Monstrosities expansion only. Also available the Atlantean Edition (Atlantis Rising 2E base game).

Part of the ATLANTIS RISING Series.

The isle of Atlantis, your home, is sinking. Will you be able to save your people in time?

Atlantis Rising is a co-operative worker placement game in which you must work together with up to five other players to deploy citizens across your homeland, gathering resources in order to build a cosmic gate that can save your people. Workers placed close to the shoreline are more rewarding, but are more likely to be flooded and the actions lost.

Every turn, each player draws a misfortune card that will flood certain locations along the ever-shrinking Atlantis shoreline, or may otherwise work to undermine your efforts to save your people. So you must race to gather the necessary resources to build and power the gate, before the island disappears beneath the waves forever.

The gods will spare no effort to destroy Atlantis. From the hidden depths of the world they have called forth unspeakable terrors, monsters sent to destroy, frighten, and harry the Atlantean effort to save their civilization. But hope is not lost. On Atlantis, as new leaders rise up to answer the challenge, new powers also emerge to save the isle. And the gods have summoned a power even they cannot control, for some of these creatures are more sympathetic to Atlantis than to the cruel and petty gods.

Atlantis Rising: Monstrosities is an expansion for Atlantis Rising (Second Edition) that offers these new challenges:

• Medusa Unleashed, in which the gorgon Medusa turns Atlanteans to stone. Can you break her curse and recruit her to your side?
• The Harpies’s Lair, in which three monstrous, birdlike creatures steal the resources and workers you need to build the Cosmic Gate. Can
• you defeat the Harpies and win back the treasures found in their lair?
• [redacted] to be revealed during the Kickstarter

Four new mechanisms are introduced to the game:

• Monsters
• Allies
• Magic Items
• Locations
