How it plays
In Overboss Duel, two players compete to build an evil overworld and fill it with monsters.

Saga Table Talk
Great for: Couples and pairs of friends who like quick, interactive tile-laying, and Boss Monster fans.
What a game night feels like: Short, punchy and a little mean. Every tile you place helps you or hurts your opponent, and often both.
