KEEP THE HEROES OUT:
PLAYING WITH FIRE
The dungeon is heating up, and it's not the fault of the broken heating system! Heroes continue to invade our corridors, plundering our treasures and disturbing our well-earned rest. It's time to fight back...literally. The friendly little monsters have a new, fiery ally ready to reduce the invaders' shining armor to ashes.
This expansion brings the Fire Elementals faction to the heart of your dungeon. They're not here to negotiate; they're here to burn. Their presence introduces a whole new dynamic, transforming static defenses into a moving inferno that will force heroes to rethink their every step. Or run screaming.
But beware: playing with fire is dangerous, even for monsters! Flames don't distinguish between a Paladin and a careless Goblin. Risk management becomes crucial as rooms fill with heat and resources risk going up in smoke. It's chaos, but it's the kind of controlled chaos we love so much.
Get ready to see your board light up in orange and red. With new cards, new meeples, and scenarios that will test your ability to cooperate, Playing with Fire is the adrenaline (and fuel) boost your games have been waiting for. Warm up your dice, and let's get started!
Elemental Fury
Control the new Fire faction: destructive, unpredictable, and incredibly fun to unleash on the heroes.
Total Chaos
Burn heroes' resources (and sometimes your own) to gain immediate and devastating tactical advantages.
Burning Scenario
Take on a new game mode where the temperature rises with every turn. Can you avoid getting burned?
Extreme Defense
New challenges require new strategies. Coordinate monsters to create deadly fire traps.

🎯 COME SI GIOCA
A SPARK THAT BECOMES HELL
On a technical level, Keep the Heroes Out: Playing With Fire isn't just "more stuff," it's a paradigm shift in the game engine. The introduction of the Fire Elementals deck adds a level of proactive aggression that was missing from the base game. Cards aren't just for movement or attack, they allow you to manipulate the environment itself, creating denial zones for your heroes.
The "burning" mechanic introduces a refined push-your-luck tactic: sacrificing resources for immediate power is tempting, but it limits future options. This constant balancing act between explosive power and long-term sustainability makes every turn a critical decision. The expansion integrates seamlessly with existing clans, offering unprecedented synergies, especially with those who can harness the chaos created by the flames.
Strategy
It requires planning: the fire spreads and you have to make sure it only hits enemies.
Combo
Explosive synergies with Dragons and other creatures that benefit from destruction.
Depth
Adds complexity without weighing down the rules, perfect for veterans of the base game.
Flow
Fast and intense turns where every action has visible and immediate consequences.
Balancing
A powerful but fragile faction if poorly managed; high risk, high reward.
Decisions
Choosing whether to defend or incinerate everything becomes the central dilemma of the game.
"Brace yourself: the temperature is about to rise dramatically."
