Pathfinder Adventure Card Game: Rise of the Runelords – Adventure Deck 6: Spires of Xin-Shalast^*

Spires of Xin-Shalast is the sixth and final adventure deck for the Pathfinder Adventure Card Game: Rise of the Runelords. It is meant for groups who have worked through the campaign and want to face the climactic battle against the Rune Lord of Greed.

What's it about?

Your heroes climb into the frozen heights of Xin-Shalast, where cannibalistic spirits and the champions of a fallen empire wait. At the very top sits Karzoug, the Runelord of Greed. This deck closes out the six-part story and requires the base set to play.

What's in the box?

The expansion adds 110 new cards that fuel the campaign's final chapters:

• New locations where encounters unfold
• Tougher monsters and powerful villains
• Fresh loot, allies, and blessings
• 5 new scenarios for the grand finale

Who is it for?

This is not a starting point. You need the base set, and ideally the previous five adventure decks, since your characters grow across the campaign and reach their strongest form here. Players who have followed the series get a fitting payoff.

Conclusion

For fans of the Rise of the Runelords campaign this is essential, because the story stays unfinished without it. Newcomers should start with the base set instead. On its own it offers nothing to play.
