Description

PureArts and Ubisoft present the officially licensed Orlog Dice Game of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla! Played extensively by the Norsemen and Anglo-Saxons in every city of the video game, Orlog is played by two players who use dice rolls and bonus effects to claim victory over their opponent.

Players roll dice to generate attacks and acquire tokens for God favors - using a combination of both during attacks and for regaining health. Players cast their dice 3 times a round until resolution. Play continues until one player has lost all Health stones.

Will you earn the favor of the Gods and receive their blessings to win? There’s only one way to find out.

Quotes (from this video)
  • Accidental heroes is upcoming crowdfunding.
  • Necroolds. Don't know if you ever heard of Necroles. It's basically a Play-Doh Morgan.
  • Pirates of the High Tease is already out and Good Kitties and Super Chunk I believe are coming to crafting soon.

  • Ghostfire Gaming. They're more known for RPGs. Not on this side, on this side. Uh, Ghostfire Gaming is more known for RPGs, but they do have Aberation and Companion Quest. They do have a few board games as well.

  • Kingdom of Monster, they definitely have burnt out their audience and still managed to be successful.
  • Lord of the Rings Ascension, which is basically Ascension, but with Lord of the Rings theming.
  • And uh my personal favorite is Mythic Mischief.
  • It's about an hour long video. Now I have to figure out whether I do a rapid fire shot through the hall or whether I actually leave me just talking for an hour and just rambling on and on and on.
