About this game

Galaxy Zento is a game in which players choose to be good or evil, become a player character type at random, and must be first to obtain a randomly issued goal to win. Players take turns in movement on the board. Each move causes a card to be revealed from the top of the main deck. Players face characters, creatures, and traps, but also obtain rewards and character building cards to make them stronger. The game employs a d20 system for combat and other card tasks. Galaxy Zento: Chessmen is based on the fantasy novel, Chessmen: Opening Moves. Galaxy Zento is a complete universe of adventure.
