Quick Overview

Brotherwise Games - Overboss

Overboss is an all-new game featuring the retro villains of Boss Monster! Emerge from your dungeon to conquer the overworld in this game of tile drafting, map building, and set collection. Up to five players compete to build the map with the greatest Power. You can fill your world with spreading swamps, spooky graveyards, dense forests, dark caves, and orc encampments.

Aspiring Overbosses must be crafty as well as fierce: each terrain type is scored differently, and your monsters must be arranged strategically to maximize their value. In Classic mode it’s easy to learn and teach, while Advanced modes give it depth and replayability! Designed by Aaron Mesburne and Kevin Russ (Calico), it’s a devious tile laying adventure for gamers of all skill levels.

Villainy Made Easy
The basic rules of Overboss are very simple: each turn, you draft one tile-and-token pair to place on your map. It’s a perfect game for introducing videogame fans or non-gamers to tabletop gaming because it’s so accessible!  But after a couple of plays, you’ll realize just how much skill it takes to optimize terrain tile placement, lines of monsters, and set collection… all while drafting in a way that thwarts your opponents.

Take It To the Next Level
Once you’ve mastered Classic mode, you can layer in new gameplay options. The Big Board makes the game longer and adds more depth to the strategy. Boss cards give each player a once-per-game power and bonus scoring objective. Command cards introduce diabolical cross-table play. There’s even a Solo campaign with unlockable achievements!

High Quality Components
Overboss is absolutely packed with value! This box includes 128 terrain tiles, 123 tokens, 5 double-sided player boards, 10 terrain selection cards, 18 Command cards, 10 Boss cards, token bag, score pad, and Solo campaign. It’s like getting a core game and big-box expansion all at once! Overboss even includes two-tiered GameTrayz™ storage trays to keep everything beautifully sorted.

Retro-Inspired Pixel Art
While Overboss is a totally new game, it features the lovable villains and pixel art that have made the Boss Monster series a smash hit. Now you have a whole new perspective on the world of Arcadia: top-down imagery inspired by legendary 16-bit games. Do you have what it takes to conquer the overworld and become the ultimate Overboss?
