OBJECT OF THE GAME

The object of the game remains the same as the Talisman

Revised 4th Edition base game. Characters must reach the

Crown of Command in the centre of the board and then, by

casting Command Spells, force the other characters out of

the game. However, the Dungeon Region offers a new way to

reach the Crown of Command via the Treasure Chamber space

(see “Treasure Chamber” on page 7).

THE LEGEND OF THE

LORD OF DARKNESS

Eons ago, a crafty wizard dared to pit his

arcane arts against the infernal powers of the

Lord of Darkness. The battle raged for days

until inally, to the demon overlord’s outrage

and horror, the wizard trapped him within his

own dungeon and stole his diabolical powers.

THE DUNGEON ICON

Cards in The Dungeon expansion are marked with an e x p a n -

s i o n s y m b o l to differentiate them from the cards in the base

game.

Using the power he had taken from the Lord

of Darkness, the wizard enslaved mysterious

spirits and compelled them to forge a magical

crown for him in the Valley of Fire. While he

wore this Crown of Command, no one dared

challenge the wizard’s absolute rule over the

land of Talisman.

Additionally, some of the new Adventure Cards are only used

if the Dungeon board is being used. In addition to the expan-

sion symbol, these cards are marked with a D u n g e o n i c o n ,

which appears next to the card’s title. If the Dungeon board

is being used, players encounter these cards as normal. If the

Dungeon board is not being used (see “Setup” and “Using

Only Portions of The Dungeon” on page 4), cards marked with

a Dungeon icon next to their title are discarded when drawn,

and a replacement card is drawn from the top of the Adven-

ture deck. (Alternately, all cards with a Dungeon icon can be

removed from the Adventure deck before the game begins if

the Dungeon board is not being used.)

But that was centuries ago. Time inally

accomplished what no army could do, and laid

the wizard low. In his inal days, he hid the

Crown of Command in the most perilous part of

the most dangerous land in his realm. He set

around it the most fearsome guardians that his

most powerful spells were able to command, to

wait for the day when a champion with sufi-

cient strength, wisdom, and courage will take

his crown and rule in his stead.

But the Lord of Darkness still remains locked in

his dark prison, its murky precincts home to all

manner of loathsome and vicious creatures who

do his nefarious bidding. The demon’s undead

legions infest its depths, eager to devour the

hapless souls who wander or become trapped

there. The Goblin King and his thieving minions

also lurk in the subterranean maze, illing the

dark lord’s treasure room with untold wealth

and powerful artefacts. And everywhere tread

the evil one’s iron golems, destroying all who

cross their path.

known as R e g i o n s . Each Region offers great opportunities,

as well as terrible dangers, for adventurers brave enough to

enter them. This expansion allows you to enter one of these

extraordinary areas – the Dungeon Region ruled by the

dreaded Lord of Darkness.

COMPONENT OVERVIEW

TREASURE

CARDS

The 10 Treasure Cards are

Magic Objects characters

may obtain by killing the

Lord of Darkness in the

Dungeon’s Treasure Chamber

(see “Fighting the Lord of Darkness” on page 7).

DUNGEON BOARD

The Dungeon board (referred to as a “Region”)

depicts the domain and lair of the Lord of Dark-

ness. The Dungeon Region holds many

dangers, but also offers great riches

and powerful Treasures to those char-

acters bold enough to enter.

CHARACTER

CARDS

The ive new Character

Cards work exactly like

those in the base game,

and offer players an even

larger selection of heroes to play.

DUNGEON CARDS

There are 128 Dungeon

Cards, featuring new Events,

Enemies, Strangers, Objects,

Followers, and Places.

Dungeon Cards are similar to

the Adventure Cards in the

base game, but are encoun-

tered by characters exploring

the Dungeon Region.

CHARACTER FIGURES

Each of the new heroes have a plastic igure used to represent

that character on the board.

SETUP

When playing with The Dungeon expansion, add the follow-

ing steps to the base game’s setup:

USING ONLY PORTIONS

OF THE DUNGEON

While The Dungeon expansion is intended

to be used as a whole, players are welcome

to play Talisman using only some of the

elements of the expansion. Speciically, the

new Character and Spell Cards may be used

without including the new Dungeon, Treasure,

and Adventure Cards or the Dungeon board.

Shufle the new Character, Adventure, and Spell Cards into

their respective decks.

Take the new Dungeon board and place it next to the main

Talisman board as shown in the diagram below. Shufle

the Dungeon deck and place it next to the Dungeon board.

Leave the new Treasure Cards in the game box until they

are needed.

DRAWING CARDS IN

THE DUNGEON

When characters in the Dungeon Region are instructed to

draw cards, they always draw Dungeon Cards rather than

Adventure Cards. This is true even when, for example, cards

and special abilities speciically instruct the player to draw

one or more “Adventure Cards.”

MOVEMENT IN THE DUNGEON

Movement in the Dungeon follows the normal movement

rules; characters roll one die and move the indicated number

of spaces.

EXPANSION RULES

When playing Talisman with The Dungeon expansion, the

basic rules of playing Talisman are unchanged, and the game

is still won by reaching the Crown of Command and elimi-

nating all other players. The only new rules needed are for

entering and exploring the Dungeon Region. These are found

below.

Each space on the Dungeon board is marked

with an arrow. These arrows point in the

direction characters should move in order to

reach the Treasure Chamber. Characters may

choose to move against the arrows if they

wish. However, doing so takes them farther

away from the ultimate prize, and closer to

the Dungeon Entrance.

Note that characters must move either directly with or directly

against the arrows when in the Dungeon. The Dungeon

map is a linear path, and characters may not move in other

directions, such as across a Dungeon space’s text box. For

example, a character could not move directly from the Library

space to the Hall of Darkness space.

ENTERING THE DUNGEON

The Dungeon is connected to the main Talisman board at the

main board’s Ruins space. A character may enter the Dungeon

Region simply by moving directly from the Ruins space on the

main board to the Dungeon Entrance space, if his movement

die roll provides him with suficient movement.

The diagram to the right

illustrates the path characters

should follow through the

Dungeon to reach the Trea-

sure Chamber. The red arrow

highlights the path leading to

the Treasure Chamber.

Entering the Dungeon through the Ruins space is optional.

Characters may choose not to enter the Dungeon, and travel

around the Outer Region instead.

While characters travel around the main Talisman board,

they may also discover Adventure Cards that allow them to

enter the Dungeon Region. Rules for entering the Dungeon by

means other than through the Ruins space are detailed on the

speciic Adventure Cards providing these means.

EXAMPLE OF ENTERING

THE DUNGEON

The Gypsy begins her turn on the Tavern and rolls a “5” for her move. She decides to

move clockwise to the Ruins and explore the Dungeon, by moving to the Dungeon

Entrance.

The Gypsy then continues her move in the Dungeon, and inally lands on the Tunnel.
