Battle for Olympus is a two-player board game where the heroes and monsters from Greek mythology battle for control of the game board. As a piece moves it can both claim board spaces for its side and capture opposing pieces. Each piece on the tabletop also has a unique ability that they can use on their turn in place of their normal movement to affect the game in a variety of ways. Capturing a predetermined number of spaces is the goal of the game and the winner is the player to reach this goal first.
