In Redwall, players take on the roles of Matthias the Mouse or Cluny the Scourge, engaging in a tactical card duel. The game ends after the 13th hand, the Final Battle, or earlier if Cluny wins three rounds in a row. Players strategically play cards to defeat their opponent and control Redwall Abbey.
Who Is This Game For?
Redwall is designed for two players interested in tactical card games and fantasy themes. Without a solo mode, it suits players with some card game experience looking for a quick duel.
How It Works
Each player commands a side—Matthias defends, Cluny attacks—and alternately plays cards. The goal is to win the Final Battle, triggered after the 13th round or when Cluny wins three consecutive hands. Players must tactically deploy cards to gain advantage and defeat their opponent.
What Makes It Special
Redwall is an asymmetrical two-player card game by Lloyd Krassner, based on a popular fantasy novel. It stands out with its distinct factions and animal theme, belonging to the two-player only games family. While no awards are listed, its literary background adds unique flavor.
