🐸 HOW TO PLAY
1. Go down into the Well
Players take on the role of the Seekers , heroes called to face a deck of 57 challenge cards, a treacherous path that leads to the fearsome Vainglory , the mistress of the Well.
2. Face challenges with cards and dice
On your turn, choose an ability card from your hand, match it to the current challenge, and roll the dice: if you accumulate enough progress tokens, you overcome the obstacle and gain rewards; if you fail, you suffer penalties that wear down the group.
3. Collaborate at all times
Even outside of your turn, you can play cards to help your teammates , strengthening their actions. But be careful: emptying your hand leads to exhaustion , a dangerous condition that can lead to defeat for everyone.
4. Survive the Pit of Vainglory
Each challenge card you complete brings you closer to the bottom of the Well. But resources are limited, and card management becomes crucial to surviving until the final level.
5. Defeat the Queen of the Well
Once you reach the end, the final battle rages: Vainglory awaits, protected by a gauntlet of defenders. Only those who combine tactics, cooperation, and nerve will be able to defeat her and claim victory.

Italian Amateur
Kinfire Delve – Complete Collection
FROGBUNDLE
Every step further down is a shorter breath. And the darkness watches you.
A cooperative challenge where every card is a risk and every die a destiny
Kinfire Delve: Vainglory's Grotto – The Descent into Darkness
Vainglory's Grotto is not a place to be explored lightly: it is a living pit, defending itself card by card, trap by trap. In Kinfire Delve: Vainglory's Grotto, you and your companion are Seekers , brave enough to descend and challenge the Queen of the Pit.
Every turn is a choice: risk it all with a roll of the dice, or lend a helping hand to your ally when everything seems to be falling apart. A game for those who love constant tension , where even a single mistake can doom you... or a brilliant move can lead you straight to victory.
A cooperative dungeon in card format
Kinfire Delve: Vainglory's Grotto is a cooperative card board game for 1–2 players , perfect for solo or duo play .
The challenge is clear: survive a 57-card deck of obstacles and enemies , accumulate progress, and make it to the final showdown against Vainglory alive. The multipurpose card, dice, and tactical cooperation mechanics make every game different, quick to learn but challenging to master. Ideal for those looking for a compact, strategic, fantasy board game with the tension of a true dungeon crawler packed into a card game.
An empty hand is your doom
The real peculiarity of this title lies in the management of your hand : each card can strengthen you or help your ally, but spending them too quickly means running out and risking losing the game.
Each challenge is a puzzle of dice and skill, where timing is more important than brute force. And when you reach the bottom of the pit, the game changes: Vainglory enters with its final barrage , and only a well-coordinated group can survive the final assault.
