Our take on Talisman: Digital 5th Edition
The defining choice is a race to the board’s centre: danger increases along the way, while players can alter the cards that shape their encounters.
What is Talisman: Digital 5th Edition?
Talisman: Digital 5th Edition adapts a fantasy adventure board game in which players choose adventurers with different abilities and race to reach the centre of the board.
Encounters include enemies, treasure, spells and strangers, with danger increasing closer to the centre. Play solo against AI opponents or with friends online or locally. The game offers the 5th Edition ruleset, house rules and a Deck Editor for adding, removing and adjusting cards encountered during play. Custom decks can be saved and used in online games. Three classic expansions are available, and the vendor says 4th Edition expansions are being remade as 5th Edition versions for owners of the original expansions in Talisman: Digital Classic Edition.
