Heroes of Barcadia is a board game for 2 to 6 players that combines classic dungeon-crawling elements with drinking. Players take on the roles of heroes whose health points (HP) are represented by the liquid level in their transparent cups. The goal of the game is to defeat the Grand Drink Guardian and claim their stash of beverages.

The game is set in the fantasy world of Barcadia, where monsters have stolen all the drinks in the kingdom and hidden them in a dangerous dungeon. Players enter this dungeon as heroes to reclaim the drinks and overcome monsters and traps along the way.

Players take turns exploring a randomly generated dungeon made up of room tiles revealed during play. When a player enters a room with a monster, a battle begins where the player and the monster (which can be controlled by another player) roll dice to determine the outcome. The liquid level in the player’s cup represents their HP. When a player takes damage, they must drink a certain amount from their cup. While exploring, players collect loot and upgrades that help them tackle tougher challenges.

The combination of a board game and drinking creates a fun and interactive experience, perfect for parties and social gatherings. You can customize the game to your beverage preferences; it doesn’t have to involve alcohol—you can use non-alcoholic drinks or even water.

If you’re looking for a fun and interactive board game that blends exploration, combat, and social drinking, Heroes of Barcadia is an excellent choice. 🍻
