Based on the Bloody Palace mode from the critically acclaimed Devil May Cry™ 5 video game,
Devil May Cry™: The Bloody Palace is a dynamic and fast-paced board game for 2 to 4 players where style counts for everything. Players each take control of an iconic Devil May Cry™ devil hunter and try to outscore each other by building the most impressive attack combos and achieving the highest style rank. We’ve decided to keep this campaign simple and create a single pledge, designed to give backers the best value and bring the Bloody Palace to your table top in spectacular style!

From the start of this campaign our backers will be able to download a
work-in-progress rulebook, allowing them to read through the rules and learn how the game works. As the campaign progresses we’ll also be releasing detailed daily updates featuring in-depth discussions of the game mechanics from our development team. These will deep-dive into each hunter’s playstyle, how to unleash powerful combos in combat, how enemies and bosses work, as well as exploring the various expansion content too! You can download the

Devil May Cry™: The Bloody Palace is a fast-paced arena combat game where hunters face down waves of increasingly powerful enemies. Defeating these enemies allows hunters to claim valuable red orbs, which players can spend to level-up their hunter, purchasing new attacks and abilities to make them even more powerful for the next wave.
Slaying demons isn’t enough to win, however—style counts for everything! Players score style points by building impressive attack combos and claiming achievements, and the player with the most style points at the end of the game is the winner. Will you make it all the way up to the coveted Smoking Sexy Style triple-S rank? Each hunter has their own unique deck of cards representing a wide variety of different attack moves they can use. These cards can be linked together into a combo chain, allowing players to create devastatingly cool flurries of attacks. But beware... being damaged by an enemy removes a combo chain entirely, forcing the hunter to start all over again. And if a hunter is defeated, they have to sit out the rest of the wave and watch their rivals rack up the points!
Deep enough to satisfy experienced gamers whilst also remaining accessible to newer players,
Devil May Cry™: The Bloody Palace is easy to learn and intuitive, but offers meaningful choices during gameplay, with high levels of replayability.
With different options to choose from when levelling-up hunters, players are sure to want to keep returning to master their favourite hunter. A single game won’t take a whole evening, meaning casual gamers can easily blast through a standalone game, and hardcore players can smash their way through several games in a single session.
