Crusader Rex is a Block Game of the 3rd Crusade. One Player plays the Christian Franks, the other, the Muslim Saracens. The Objective of the Game is to control important Victory Cities such as Jerusalem, Acre, Damascus and Antioch.
The Board depicts the Middle East from Antioch in the North to Egypt in the south, creating an engaging and elegant experience. You find yourself immersed in the theme and historical flavor that Crusader Rex has to offer. The Franks looking to take back the Holy Land, can they hold out until the powerful Crusaders arrive, such historical figures as the ruthless Richard the Lionheart, Philip II of France, or even the 67 year old Frederick I Red Beard of Germania? As Saladin, who was the epitome of a chivalrous Warrior, can you repeat History and retain the Holy Land for the Saracens?
