I Thornmar Abbey, an ancient order of holy knights guards a sealed portal to the underworld. The knights must protect the ancient sages who maintain the seal. After decades of peace, the seal has weakened, and demons are emerging from the crack. The demons attempt to fight their way past the brave knights and kill enough of the elders to break the seal. Infused with the blessing of the gods, it is only these brave knights who have a chance to protect the sages and prevent an army of monsters from flooding into the world.Knight Fall is an asymmetrical team game for one to six players. One team controls the knights, who must protect the sages and withstand the demons until dawn. The other team controls the demons, who seek to break the seal to the underworld before morning.During the game, you choose a unique knight or demon, each with a range of special powers – such as the Flame Knight's ability to surround his enemies in fire, or the Bone Crusher's power to summon skeletal minions. The cards you play from your hand to perform actions can each be used in different ways, and a set of unique placement pieces allows you to create the abbey with a different layout in each game.Knight Fall also features a campaign for one to two players. In this campaign, you read stories while exploring a map of a haunted valley and chart your path as you travel. Wander through crumbling churches, a creepy forest, and a dark mountain to stop the demons before the final battle at Thornmar Abbey. You must do what you can to keep your knights alive; each knight's death means one less hero to fight the invading demons in the final battle!
