Dethroners
Jedediah Berry and Andrew McAlpine
A band of renegades rises up against the cruel god who dominates the land. In the conflict to follow, nothing matters more than the right to tell the tale...
Dethroners is a complete adventure game of weird fantasy and shifting narrative control for 3 to 5 players. One player is the Divinity, intent on solidifying their power and crushing a nascent rebellion. The others are Renegades, bold souls who seek to liberate the world. As the Renegades score major triumphs, they literally tear pages from the rulebook, claiming facets of the Divinity's authority.
