In the Wrath of the Lich King board game, players take control of one of Azeroth’s heroes and battle their way through the Scourge to the throne of fallen Prince Arthas, now known as the fearsome Lich King throughout Azeroth. To reclaim Azeroth from the Lich King, travel across the freezing region of Northrend, complete quests, combat monster creatures, and more.
“Wrath of the Lich King is our first time taking the Pandemic game system into beloved fictional settings like Azeroth. It literally opens up a whole new world of possibility.” Said Justin Kemppainen, Director of Brand Management at Z-Man Games.
“There’s no greater threat to Azeroth than the Scourge. The game really illustrates that by mixing the thrilling co-operative gameplay Pandemic fans know and love with World of Warcraft. We’re confident new and existing players of both franchises will love it!” He added.
A very complete tabletop game based on World of Warcraft.
