Midgard Wardens — a free co-op board game to play with friends online

A game where everyone has to talk.

40 towns, 4 provinces

A continent around an inland sea, each province home to its own tribe: Lava, Sand, Tide and Shade.

4 roles, no repeats

Cleric, Alchemist, Builder and Guardian are each good at something different. A good team makes every one count.

Swarm bursts and blood moons

An overfull town bursts into its neighbours, and blood moons bring the old towns back for more. Every game goes down to the wire.

Pick the difficulty

Easy, normal or hard, chosen by the host before the game. The harder it is, the more blood moons hide in the deck.

Your turn

  1. Take 4 actions

    Travel, defeat cubbits, build a warp tower, pass a card or seal a nest, in any mix.

  2. Draw cards

    Two town cards to travel and seal with. Watch out for blood moons.

  3. The cubbits move in

    Reveal where they land, then pass to the next Warden.

FAQ

Is it really free?

Yes, and you can play without an account. Signing in with Google is only for stats and the ranking.

How many players?

Two to four. Everyone picks a role in the lobby, no two the same; anyone who does not pick gets a random one.

How is it different from Midgard Roads?

In Roads you race each other for points. In Wardens you are all one team against the game, and you win or lose together.

Where are the full rules?

A detailed guide to the roles, the actions and how to win is on the Midgard blog. Read the full rules ↗
