The Siege of Runedar is a cooperative game for 1-4 players who take on the role of dwarves who must defend the walls of Runedar and the treasure they hold within. They will have to face orcs, goblins and trolls, fighting in hand-to-hand combat against those who manage to get past the walls and shooting from a distance at those who try to enter. A deck-building system allows players to upgrade their weapons and tools as they must hold off the raiders long enough to build a tunnel to escape the terrible siege they are subjected to and get the treasure to safety. The Games Friends: "A game by Reiner Knizia with artwork by Andrew Bosley. That sounds fantastic! And fortunately it is also just a fun game. The actions are easy to remember and the mechanism (a cooperative deck builder) is of course always fun. In addition, it also looks beautiful, with the fort that comes in the game box. Recommended for people who like not too complicated cooperative games!"
