Karak 2 is a standalone sequel to one the Top 10 Children’s Games on BGG Karak. The second installment adds a more complex layer while staying approachable for kids. Each player becomes a hero, trying to defeat monsters and their leader, the Dark General. However, to achieve that, they will have to collect resources, build and develop their cities and train new units (represented by dice) to add to their army. Over the course of the game the players will defeat monsters carrying powerful Soul Stones – and the player with the most Soul Stones at the end of the game is the winner. —description from the publisher
