Dungeon Pen

Dungeon Pen unfolds in the mythical world of Scythius—a medieval fantasy realm created by Compagnie du Yucca for our live-action role-playing games (LARPs). Step into the roles of daring adventurers or nefarious underworld scum, all cast into the dreadful dungeons of the infamous Ursula, necromancer of the endless mountains. For too long, you've languished in a cramped cell within a vast, damp hall. On the rare occasions you're allowed out, you've managed to gather a small treasure, which you guard meticulously beside your bed. Mostly, your days are filled with nothing but the taunts of fellow prisoners and the sneering laughter of the jailers. Then, on one dark and indistinguishable night, when the jailers have neglected to bring food, the gates of two cells swing open. Your heart pounds with adrenaline—not to escape, as any sane person might, but driven by all those insults endured, to snatch your rival’s treasure. Gameplay Overview Players find themselves on opposite ends of the Dungeon-Prison map. The objective is simple: navigate through the dungeon, seize the opponent's treasure, and return to your cell first to claim victory. Each turn, maneuver your character with a strategic pencil flick, then draw an event card that needs immediate resolution. The dungeon throws challenges at every turn, from monsters and magical barriers to perplexing walls, testing every player's resolve. As you navigate the map, any element you encounter (be it debris or treasure) can be collected: Debris: Draw from a deck filled with various equipment and advantageous items that could tilt the scales in your favor. Treasure: Capture your opponent’s treasure and make a swift return to your cell. But tread carefully—the dungeon is fraught with peril, your adversary is unyielding, and your life points are precious. Every move could be your last. Navigate wisely to survive and triumph. —description from the publisher
