The Illuminator Quest “Deep Trouble” game offers players a new way to experience the world of Dini Lorcana TCG.
Players can team up with friends or go on a solo quest to defeat Ursula and save Lorcana in Ilumier’s quest “Deep Trouble”, the first co-op game in the Dini Lorcana TCG. In the game, the illuminators follow Ursula’s evil spark until they reach her cabin in the kingdom of Lorcana. Unfortunately, Ursula is preparing for the arrival of the pilots by mind-control trapping other sparks and natural disasters creating seemingly impossible obstacles. The pilots must use all their skills and work as a team to prevent Ursula from consolidating her power in Lorcana territory. The set includes a guided play area for Ursula, two pre-made Disney Lorcan TCG play ships (including Disney’s Mulan and Yen Sid and built with cards from the first four Disney Lorcan TCG sets), and a ship for the fierce Ursula. A magical sea witch plays by her own rules.
The game offers four difficulty levels from easy to extreme, and each level includes rule variations that make the gaming experience unique. Ursula’s power increases over the course of the game, so players are encouraged to customize their house to have a better chance of success on higher difficulty levels. Minimally customizable, the game includes everything needed for 1-2 players and can be expanded up to 4 players with additional Disney Lorcana TCG decks. Players can use cards that come in pre-built player decks or use their own deck in-game. The cards in Ursula’s deck have a distinctive black background to make them easier to identify. The game is suitable for Disney Lorcana TCG players aged 8 and up and retails for €59.99.
