Watchtower Games is proud to announce its new card and dice game Fallen.

Adventure deep within a dungeon and battle the forces of darkness. Find magical treasures in your quest to slay the evil overlord waiting at the bottom of the labyrinth. Or bind creatures to your will and send them hunting through the corridors as the Dungeon Lord.

Fallen features a unique story mechanic where the Hero chooses their path through the adventure in the ultimate goal to defeat the Dungeon Lord. The game is packed with characters, skills, power cards, creatures, treasures, and story cards giving you endless ways to play. The game also features classic role-playing themes and is a great way to get your RPG fix with just two players.

Lead Designer Tom Green presents the first designer diary video giving an overview of Fallen as well as the goals going into the game's design at //www.watchtowergames.com

Will you be the Dungeon Lord summoning vile creatures and cursing the dungeon with dark magic? Or will you be the Hero, bravely exploring the depths below and fighting back the evil horde? Keep an eye out for Fallen available on Kickstarter in June 2013.

Fallen's Designer Diary #2 takes a closer look at the Story card that sets the scene and drives the action of the game. Choose the right path and treasure and glory are yours. Choose poorly, and fall prey to the traps and vile creatures controlled by the Dungeon Lord.

The Story cards in Fallen not only set the stakes for each challenge but provide a great narrative for players to adventure in haunted chambers, under ruined temples, and in chasm's deep below the earth. With 45 Story cards included in the game, each one with multiple paths and three different endings, Fallen offers hours of dungeon exploration.

Lead Designer Tom Green presents the second designer diary video giving an in depth look at the mechanics as well as the design that went into the game's Story cards.

Fallen's Designer Diary #3 wades deep into battle to see how Challenges are resolved. We'll show how the custom dice are used as well as Power cards, Fortune dice,  Ultimate abilities, and Equipment cards.

The Challenges in Fallen cover a wide range of dangers a adventurer may encounter in a dungeon such as disarming a trapped room as the walls close in, casting a spell to keep dark spirits at bay, and fighting battles with goliaths at the bottom of the dungeon.
