In this historical strategic/adventure game, the players take on the role of the heroes of the January Uprising in the Kurpie region. Their goal is to complete various tasks around the board, while dealing with random events, such as meeting the Tsar's Courier etc. Each character has a special ability, but there is a limited amount of actions that can be taken each turn, so players best plan ahead. The game aims to capture the struggle of a small guerilla force against the threat of a dangerous, oppresive foe.
