Elements of Play
The player will Delve, reach a Finale at the location, and then Return. These 3 steps make the core loop of Troves.
Each game of Troves requires the player to have a Delve picked out. All Delves provide the needed tables and rules to delve into. Each location will test all the abilities of a player as they work to gather Knowledge, recover treasure, and overcome the Finale.
On success or failure of an adventure, the player will Return to their starting location where they can recover, upgrade their skills and abilities, and even purchase new equipment or upgrades for their existing equipment. All treasure is sold at this step to add to the total Coins available for the player for purchasing upgrades, equipment, and more.
Troves can be played cooperatively with up to 3 people, so grab a few friends and get exploring!
Delves
"Hidden deep within the shadowed valleys of an ancient forest lies the rumored Lair of the Wyrm, a place whispered about by brave adventurers and broken Delvers. Enshrouded in a mystery of overgrown foliage, this abandoned maze serves as the domain of the fearsome Wyrm."
Inside the rulebook, you will find 4 Delves, adventure locations, to get started with. These provide a great jumping-off point for first-time players.
