Players
Two to four players each take on the role of a Warcraft character. The base World of Warcraft Adventure Game comes with four unique and distinctive characters: Burbonn Fang the Dwarf hunter, Sandrai Darkshine the Human warlock, Sofeea Icecall the Undead mage, and Grumbaz Crowsblood the Orc warrior. Each character is depicted by his own detailed plastic figure and has his own specialized character and ability cards.
Gameplay
On each of his turns, a player will roll the movement die to determine how many spaces he may move on the game board and how much energy he has available to spend. He will then move throughout Azeroth, potentially playing cards as he goes to smooth his own path or interfere with the other players.
When a character reaches his destination, he will activate any resources present in his space (such as scrolls that let him draw cards, or flight paths that let him move rapidly across the map) and then have an encounter. Some spaces have pre-printed encounters on them-such spaces may act as "gatekeepers" to allow players to achieve the next level, or offer a powerful or useful ability to anyone who lands on that space. In spaces without a pre-printed encounter, players must draw an encounter from the relevant encounter deck.
Encounters
There are four challenge decks, corresponding to the four game levels: grey, green, yellow, and red. When a character has an encounter in a grey space, he draws a grey challenge card. Challenge cards can be events (which each have their own special rules as printed on the card) or encounters, which represent the monsters and enemies of the Warcraft universe.
Quests
Each hero has his quest, and quests in World of Warcraft: the Adventure Game are heroic indeed! Each quest is unique, and each is worth some number of valor points. Quests may ask characters to travel to specific locations, defeat a certain kind of monster, or challenge enemy characters in combat
Victory
The winner in a game of World of Warcraft: the Adventure Game is the first hero to achieve eight valor points. This hero has become so well-known and celebrated that he has become legend!
