At the side of Unexpected Games Some information about the game is shared. What is particularly interesting is that the participants do not play against each other, but work together to complete missions. Studio head Corey Konieczka emphasizes that they wanted to capture the spirit of the original in the board game.

Players have the choice between eight different characters to play as. These differ primarily in their unique skills, which are displayed via skill cards. During the given missions, the most important thing is the right tactics and intelligent use of skills.

This is how The Mandalorian Adventures plays

Goals vary depending on the current task. The missions in “The Mandalorian: Adventures” take place on the pages of the included map book and let players relive iconic moments from the series.

As the game progresses, the challenge should become more complex and gradually familiarize board game fans with the mechanics. There is also said to be a hidden traitor mechanic that has not yet been explained in detail.

With their game, Unexptected Games is jumping on the current trend for games and films to be adapted as board games. So should 2024 “Rayman” find your way into the analog world.

It is the first licensed game for the small studio since it was founded, but studio boss Konieczka already has experience with such implementations. In the past, he was involved in “Star Wars: Rebellion” and “Battlestar Galactica: The Boradgame,” among others.
