Crimson Ridge is a strategic two player card game in which heroes battle each other to capture arenas for their faction by spilling the blood of their enemies. Players play cards face down and reveal them simultaneously to resolve battles. The strategy comes from knowing what your opponent has left in their deck and forecasting their next move. Winning a battle captures an arena for your faction and earns you Victory Points. Crimson Ridge captures the strategy, speed and brutality of melee combat duels in a card game that can be played in ten to fifteen minutes. —description from the designer
