Competitive 1-5 player card game where players take on the role of well-known characters from the Witcher game franchise. Created by Go On Board who are well known for their previous board game installments in the Witcher franchise, including Old World and Ronin.
In the Path of Destiny, players will follow an iconic story from the Witcher Saga, where they will encounter many challenges and obstacles along the way. And although all of them will make it to the end of the tale, only one player will emerge as the ultimate victor.
Throughout the game, players will encounter Tales that offer narrative and strategic challenges to overcome. But intertwined between these encounters are three main mechanics that the game revolves around. Card drafting allows players to take cards from the board and build up their strategy and master hand management. Both of these will prepare them for the branching storyline that they’ll travel along with other players.
But, how is the victor determined? After completing three rounds, the game will arrive at an epilogue. At which point cards will reveal determining factors and in turn announce which character emerges as the ultimate victor.
