About the Game

Now you can play the classic turn-based strategy board game Dragons of 1066 online.

In Dragons of 1066 each player controls one of four warring kingdoms of Mythic Europe.

The game begins with pieces representing armies of legions, knights, warbeasts, kraken, galleons, eagles and dragons -- all arrayed on the board as they were in the year 1066 of the Age of Dragons.

Each turn, you move your pieces to create battles, then resolve those battles by rolling dice. Then end your turn by repositioning your remaining pieces and recruiting new ones.

To win, you and your ally must work together to capture all four great Fortresses on the board. (In a two player game, one player plays both sides of the alliance.)

The rules of Dragons of 1066 are straightforward, but take some effort to learn. Once you have mastered the rules, you will be able to enjoy the game for years to come.

This digital version of the game is beautifully illustrated by Dave Montes, and features an absolute fire score from award-winning composer Chris Rickwood. It includes an easy way to connect with friends to play online. 

Mobile Cross-play and Account-linking

Dragons of 1066 has a full mobile version for IOS and Android. Steam players get these full mobile versions for free on both platforms.  Link your Steam version to the mobile app to play your Dragons of 1066 anywhere. In addition, Dragons of 1066 is cross-play enabled, and you can play with friends who have only the mobile version. 

True Roll

Rolling dice is important in Dragons of 1066, and this digital version employs the True Roll dice system. True Roll lets you, not the computer, roll the dice, generating fair results through your own throwing action, just as you would when playing the box game. Learn more about the True Roll system at the Huge Workshop website.

We hope you enjoy the game.
