"If you are a gamer of any sort, chances are you've heard of The Elder Scrolls. At the very least, the latest video game in the series, Skyrim, is on so many platforms now, that you can probably play it on your smart fridge. But for those few who aren't familiar, The Elder Scrolls is a fantasy video game series where you control a hero who goes about the land doing what heroes do in fantasy RPGs."
"This is all relevant because publisher Chip Theory Games has taken The Elder Scrolls universe, including but not limited to Skyrim, and built an adventure game around it. If you've played a Chip Theory Game before, you should have an idea of what you are in for: Lots of rules, amazing components, tons of variety, and many, many poker chips."
Chip Theory Games adapted The Elder Scrolls universe, including Skyrim, into a component-heavy adventure game with many rules and poker-chip components. The campaign spans three sessions and culminates in a final climatic battle. Players create heroes by combining race, class, and skills from numerous options—about ten races, fifteen classes, and a dozen skills—producing many possible combinations. Players select one of five regions and join a guild that assigns a starting quest with roughly twelve days to complete. Each day operates as a round where players travel the overland map to battles, towns, or peaceful narrative encounters involving choices. Towns provide opportunities to upgrade skills, equipment, and accept new quests.
