Gather your courage as the dark monsters of Greek mythology prepare for a final assault on the majestic Mount Olympus! The Greek gods stand ready to defend their sacred ground. Will it be the fearsome creatures of the underworld or the mighty deities who claim victory in this epic clash of blood and ichor?

Ichor is an engaging asymmetric strategy game designed for two players by the renowned game designer Reiner Knizia. In this thrilling mythological battle of wits, one player takes on the role of the Greek gods, while the other commands the mighty Greek monsters.

On your turn, strategically move your figures in a straight line, covering as much distance as you desire. As you traverse the board, leave behind a trail of your tokens on each space you cross. However, be cautious! You cannot move onto or over spaces occupied by other figures, but you can replace your opponent's tokens with your own in a bid for dominance. The first player to successfully establish their tokens on the board claims victory!

Each figure brings a unique ability to the game, and these can be activated only once per match. The key to victory lies in mastering these abilities, setting up impressive plays, and cleverly blocking your opponent’s strategies.

Reiner Knizia has enhanced Ichor by refining character abilities and introducing exciting new ones. Experience a thrilling gameplay expansion with the Reinforcements & Gates expansion, which adds powerful gate tiles and additional gods and monsters. Feel the competition heat up as you navigate a dual-play experience that grows more intense with each move!

With nearly 50 million possible setups, thanks to two game boards, 24 characters, and eight gate tiles, every match promises a fresh challenge. Ichor is the second installment in the Mythos Collection—a series of captivating two-player games that combine strategy with the allure of mythology.
