Splendor Duel: Which Guild Will Be the Best?

Discover new twists and strategic opportunities derived from Splendor, the original hit game. Acquire cards with awesome powers, enjoy special privileges, and fight for limited access to Pearls. Splendor Duel is a standalone two-player game based on Splendor that retains some of its core gameplay mechanics while being a bit more complex, dynamic, interactive, rich, tense, and cutthroat.

The game features a shared main board for both players, card powers, and three victory conditions.

Splendor Duel: How Do You Play?

You'll find the familiar flavor of Splendor: choosing one action per turn, a maximum of 10 tokens in your reserve, reserving a card with a gold token, and three card tiers. However, several differences make it a bit more complex and richer than its illustrious predecessor.
Token collection is done using a grid of 25 tokens. You can collect 3 adjacent tokens. This grid can be refilled before making your choice, but by giving a privilege token to your opponent.
Some cards have special powers that allow you to gain a privilege token, take another turn, take a token from your opponent, or an additional token of the same color as the card.

There are 3 victory conditions: 10 points in a single color, a total of 20 points, or 10 crowns.
