What it is about

Sanctum Guard is a 20-minute pen-and-paper solo game about protecting a powerful magic artifact against a horde of night terrors. To play this game, you need: Two D6 dice Pen and graph/squared paper (anything with squares) In this game, you are a lone guardian of a secluded sanctum built to protect the Obsidram, a powerful artifact that can potentially destroy worlds if it falls into the wrong hands. You live in peace and harmony with the Obsidram while it is hidden in this secret and desolate domain from power-hungry minds. But one night, someone or something finds the way and you see a glimmering portal from which a horde of monsters descends upon you. Will you manage to protect the Obsidram? Key game mechanics: Worker placement gameplay (guard activates actions in different rooms), dice-drafting in the game setup (for drawing rooms of your sanctum). Genre: Tower defense Steel Wolf Expansion (Christmas 2023) A one-page expansion that adds a new room to the game. You can choose to draw the Steel Wolf room during the setup instead of the Palisade, Armory, or the Mind control room. It allows you to summon the Steel Wolf into battle. This magical construct taunts the enemy and fights to the death. Classes (Spring 2024) A one-page expansion that adds classes to the Sanctum Guard base game. The six classes with perks as well as hindrances are: Lightning paladin, Revenant, Tinker, Warlock, Shieldmaster, and Psychic knight. It also includes a new optional difficulty for brave people: Brutal.
