D&D PvP (Dungeon Mayhem)

Hello, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to a brand new episode of DUNGEON MAYHEM!  Who will stand on top, will it be the strong, ferocious Barbarian?  Will the mighty Paladin shine on top?  Does magic find its purchase here with the Wizard, or shadows with the Rogue?  Find out in Dungeon Mayhem!  



BACKGROUND: Dungeon Mayhem is a card game designer by Jordan Comar, Roscoe Wetlaufer, and Kyle Ferrin.  It was published by Wizards of the Coast (Yeah, that one) in 2018.  Players take the role of 1 of 4 different D&D themed characters and fight each other until the last one is standing.

GAMEPLAY:  Each players starts with a health tracker at 10, and a hand of 3 and their dungeon deck and reference card.  Each turn, a player plays 1 card from their hand.  Depending on the symbols in the top left, players do different effects.  Crossed swords mean that player can attack another player with a card, whereas lightning bolts allow for more cards played.  Each deck has its own individual effects, such as attacking everybody, or ignoring effects for a turn.



WINNING:  Each time a player's life hits 0, they are eliminated.  The winner is the last player standing.

CONCLUSION: Dungeon Mayhem is a simple game to understand that can be a quick game to enjoy.  Games generally don't last longer than 20 minutes, even when you're starting to learn the game.  Due to the simplicity of the game, you can also pull it out and just play a couple rounds with a group anywhere.  It might be a bit too luck driven if you're looking for a game primary on strategy, but there's enough actual strategy to still enjoy the game for most people.  This is one dungeon you should definitely crawl.
