Calliope Games will release Allegory, a set collecting board game, into retail in the second half of 2021.

In the game of Allegory, players take on the roles of renowned authors that are scribing Tales of Nature, Energy, and Spirit.  Players try to earn points by bidding Lore chips, collecting cards into three different Tales, and creating sets of Themes.  Also, players have a hidden goal, and they must manage their cards to make sure that their lowest value Tale has a high score because it is the only Tale that gets scored.

The game box comes with 63 Theme cards, 18 Moral cards, 90 Lore chips, 6 Rest markers, and a rulebook.  Allegory supports two to six players, ages 8 and up, and plays in 30 to 50 minutes.  It will retail for $25.00.

Last year, Calliope streamlined their distributor roster because of risks to their brands (see "Calliope Games Slashes Distributor Roster").
