{"product_id":"flamecraft","title":"Flamecraft","description":"\u003cp\u003eFlamecraft is a worker placement game of dragon wrangling, shop enchanting, and reputation building for 1–5 players. Artisan dragons — smaller, magically gifted cousins of their destructive kin — are prized by shopkeepers for their flamecraft: the ability to produce extraordinary goods through the application of elemental fire. You are a Flamekeeper, skilled in the art of conversing with these creatures, placing them in their ideal homes, and coaxing them to do what they do best.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe town is lined with shops: bakeries, forges, apothecaries, and more. Each visit lets you gather items and collect favours from the dragons already in residence. Spend those items to cast enchantments, earning reputation and triggering the abilities of every dragon in the shop. Attract fancy dragons and you'll unlock even greater rewards. The Flamekeeper who earns the most reputation by the end of the game is crowned Master of Flamecraft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFlamecraft is a game that looks gentle and plays with surprising depth. The artwork by Sandara Tang is exceptional — lush, warm, and full of character — and the dragon variety keeps every game feeling fresh. It works beautifully as a solo puzzle and scales well all the way to five, making it one of the most versatile games in its weight class.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's good?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStunning artwork by Sandara Tang — one of the most visually striking games at this price point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElegant worker placement with meaningful decisions at every turn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix dragon specialisations create varied strategies and replayability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlays solo through to five players without losing its appeal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight enough for families, deep enough for hobbyists\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho is it for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Fans of worker placement who want something approachable and visually beautiful\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Families with older children (10+) looking for a step up from gateway games\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Solo players who enjoy an engine-building puzzle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✔ Anyone who appreciates exceptional board game art\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✖ Players who prefer heavy, complex strategy games\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✖ Those looking for a quick filler — Flamecraft rewards a full sit-down session\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1–5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaying Time\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAge\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10+\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComplexity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLight (2.19 \/ 5)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMechanics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWorker Placement, Hand Management, Engine Building, Set Collection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCardboard Alchemy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Year\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManny Vega\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Code\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLOG-LKYCA03001\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBarcode\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e196852692798\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e29.6 × 7.4 × 29.8 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePair with:\u003c\/strong\u003e Expand your game with the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/flamecraft-dragons-dragons-expansion\" title=\"Flamecraft: Dragons \u0026amp; Dragons Expansion\"\u003eDragons \u0026amp; Dragons Expansion\u003c\/a\u003e or the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/flamecraft-dragons-of-the-past-promo-pack\" title=\"Flamecraft: Dragons of the Past Promo Pack\"\u003eDragons of the Past Promo Pack\u003c\/a\u003e, both available at Life of Games.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cardboard Alchemy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60139150737742,"sku":"LOG-LKYCA03001","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0812\/9812\/9230\/files\/flamecraft-web.webp?v=1784128222","url":"https:\/\/lifeofgames.co.uk\/products\/flamecraft","provider":"Life of Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
