PARIS – April 13th, 2022 - Asmodee Digital, a leading video games publisher, has released A Feast for Crows DLC, a wide-ranging expansion to the popular title, A Game of Thrones: The Board Game - Digital Edition. The new expansion introduces a radically different four-player scenario that incorporates multiple game-changing features such as a new faction, objective cards and a new victory condition to change the game’s pace. A Feast for Crows DLC is now available on mobile and Steam and will be priced $3.99/4,49€ on the App Store, 3,49$/€2.99 on Google Play and $4.99/4,99€ on Steam.
A Feast for Crows portrays the story of House Arryn, a people held aloft in the mountaintops cresting the clouds. Where once the mountain range shielded its people from the chaos of Westeros, trouble now befalls their once relatively undisturbed existence. Lord Jon Arryn, the mentor and brother-in-law of Ned Stark, was murdered, and the members of the House Arryn crave retribution for this grave injustice. The Arryns have been plotting and preparing for their vengeance and are now ready to strike at the foolish outsiders who seek to rule Westeros.
The new DLC comes with a plethora of new game-changing content:
7 unique House cards for the new Arryn House, 28 secret objective cards, 4 faction objective cards and 10 new Westeros cards.
This four-player scenario drastically changes the pace of the game by shifting the focus away from castles to the new victory condition that sees players performing public and secret objectives.
The House Arryn disrupts the usual balance of power by occupying otherwise empty sides of the map, with unique cards betting on influence and changing up the gameplay from the other Houses.
One more unique twist to the rules is introduced, with Supply now being checked every turn and dynamically limiting the number of units a player can have, creating tension around key territories throughout the map.
Developed by Dire Wolf Digital, A Game of Thrones: The Board Game - Digital Edition is an adaptation of Fantasy Flight Games’ top-selling strategy board game, which is based on the deep lore of George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire. The game offers unique story-driven challenges set during the War of the Five Kings, the massive conflict in which the six Great Houses of Westeros must face off against one another to claim the throne. Employing a combination of strategic planning, warfare, betrayal, cooperation, masterful diplomacy and military might, players take control of one of six Houses of Westeros (Lannister, Stark, Greyjoy, Martell, Tyrell or Baratheon) to seize the crown over the span of 10 rounds. The game also features asynchronous gameplay, online and offline (solo) modes and cross-platform multiplayer -- giving mobile players the ability to challenge, or work alongside, PC and Mac players.
A Game of Thrones: The Board Game - Digital Edition is available for download on Steam for $19.99/19,99€, iOS for $9.99/10,99€ and Android for $8.99/8,99€.
