Sons of Faeriell is a semi-cooperative, strategic eurogame with multiple endings, for 2 to 4 players and is coming to Kickstarter on the 28th of October by Tabula Games!

Faeriell is a verdant land of forests, mountains and lakes, set at risk by the menace of Corruption. All players have to face this threat, while pursuing their individual Achievements. If they fail to constrain the rise of Corruption, everyone loses the game. Collecting the most Achievements, while avoiding this fatal outcome, allows one player to win the game.

Players guide different Tribes of Weybits, the youngest sons of Faeriell. They are tiny and industrious humanoids, with the common goal to preserve the environment from Corruption and help the Great Guardians, the giant keeper animals that watch over the land since remote times.

The customization of the Weybit Heroes starts from the beginning with the selection of their Tribe Masks, original items which can be worn by the minis. Each color of those masks provides a different specialization. New Heroes can be dressed and upgraded during the game with the acquisition of Perks, additional abilities that make every character unique. Weybits can become the most efficient helpers to the Great Guardians, mastering the knowledge of nature and learning to fight Corruption.

As an additional thrill to the game, one player can choose to change sides, get corrupted and gain the Corruption Sower as a new Hero, becoming able to win in the event Corruption defeats all others.

Strategic choices lead to multiple endings, making every game a different story to be unfolded.

 

What’s great about this game!

Unique Minis with Wearable Masks

Weybits are characters picked by the players and their minis can wear unique Tribe Masks which can be easily put on and off, to change their look at every game according to a player’s strategy. Masks represent the heritage and the unique specialization of a Weybit Hero.

Semi-Cooperative with Multiple Endings

The goal of the players is to pursue individual Achievements for the sake of their Tribe of Weybits. Cooperation is necessary to constrain the rising menace of Corruption before it’s too late. On the other hand, a player can decide to play against all others on the side of Corruption, intensifying the competitive thrill of the game.

Strategy-driven Character Development

Achievements can be pursued through various strategic paths, in which the customization of the Weybit Heroes plays a crucial role. Players start choosing how to develop their Heroes from when they select their Mask, then they can level up with different Perks acquired during the game.

The Message

Sons of Faeriell encourages players to think about the vital importance of keeping balance in a natural environment, experiencing the sense of awareness, responsibility and harmony that can still be reached in the real world. 

A Feast of Art

A pool of great artists has been chosen to bring Faeriell and its inhabitants to life. There is so much to imagine in this world, with the vibrant colours and the variety of a lush natural landscape. Sceneries, creatures and maps are coming from different points of view to assemble a new perspective.
