Quick
Summary
In
Dungeoneer, you take on the mantle of one of
four great Heroes set out to prove your valor. Choose a character from one of
four options (see Roderick below). Then begin playing cards from your hand to
build the dungeon (see example of four cards arranged below). You can also play
quests from your hand (e.g., Maiden in Distress"), different maneuvers in response
to danger, and give your hero special weapons and skills (e.g., the Axe of Weeping
Wounds).
Dungeoneeris fast, portable, and easy to learn yet challenging for players
of all levels. Projected expansion sets will provide new characters,
treasure cards, encounter cards, and of course...dungeon cards.

Citizen Games page for Dungeoneer
The
game is not available in most stores or (as of this review)
from Funagain Games. You can purchase it directly from Citizen
Games.
Middle school children and teenagers who enjoy fantasy are likely
to enjoy Dungeoneer with its excellent graphics and exciting
game play. Some conflict is possible, but most of the danger is
from
the threats of the dungeon itself. If you are looking for a way
to become involved with your teen, this may be a good choice.
