Control Cruel Seas In Nemo Rising: Robor The Conqueror
February 10, 2019 by cassn
The sea is everything. It covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy. It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides. The sea is only the embodiment of a supernatural and wonderful existence. It is nothing but love and emotion; it is the Living Infinite. - Jules Verne, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea
Let me just take a moment to say if you haven't read Twenty Thousand Leagues, you need to go get yourself the book. It's excellent.
Anyway, this next board game is based off the adventures of Captain Nemo aboard the crew of the fantastical Nautilus. First appearing in Jules Verne's classic novel, this board game actually follows the reappearance of the fabled scientific genius in C. Courtney Joyner's novel Nemo Rising.
Nemo Rising: Robor the Conqueror is a cooperative board game is divided into two scenarios - The Undersea Grotto, where you must gather supplies without the Nautilus, battle Krackens and Hydras, and compete against scavengers, and the City In The Sky, where you and your crew must defeat Robur the Conqueror and his fearsome soldiers, war dogs and steampunk creations.
Nemo Rising is a dice rolling, action sequence game with beautiful artwork. Wizkids have said the game will be released in September 2019, and we'll be interested to explore the scenarios in greater detail.
