Hell's Rising: Dante's Adventure

Based on Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy, this board game casts players as Dante, Beatrice, Orpheus, or Virgil, each seeking to collect souls across the underworld. Players use a limited number of action points rather than dice to recruit armies, play cards, declare or stop wars, conquer territories, and invoke guardians. Different strategies can lead to victory, with luck also influencing the outcome. The game features dark, paper-based artwork inspired by Dante’s writings.
