Sponsored.  Kinfire Council is a competitive strategy game for 2–6 players designed by Kevin Wilson (Arkham Horror, Descent) and published by Incredible Dream Studios.  Explore the latest game in the Kinfire universe.  As a member of the Council, you've been charged with rebuilding the great city of Din'Lux and defending it from the dangers of the Starless Nights.  Will you become a trusted leader, or the Cult Conspirator who betrays them all?

Politics and Strategy: Kinfire Council
The third Kinfire game, Kinfire Council (SKU:AYA12020001) is scheduled to be released in August 2025.  This time around, Wilson has decided to create a worker placement strategy game for 2-6 players in which they serve as the City Council of Din'Lux, guiding the city after the events of Night's Fall.  Although Din'Lux has been explored in Kinfire Chronicles, this is a further look at the city's politics and citizens.  In addition, while the viewpoint shifts away from the Seekers that the players have followed since the beginning of Kinfire, they still appear in the game as some of the players' loyal workers.  Each Seeker also acquires a small cast of friends and acquaintances that are depicted as the other workers in the game.

This is the first competitive game of the Kinfire line (although solo and co-op play will be available with the Winds of Change Expansion), and is designed to appeal to gamers who like euro-style strategy games with richer, more integrated themes.  Players take turns working to meet the needs of Din'Lux, solve its problems, and build up the city and its surrounding areas.  In the meantime, the Cult of Altan, a villainous group first encountered in Kinfire Chronicles, works to undermine them, and can even win the game.  However, a cunning (if unprincipled) member of the Council can ally with the Cult, perhaps even seizing victory from the jaws of what would've otherwise been a last place finish.  Kinfire Council presents players with a tactically-crunchy series of decisions as they work to enact their strategies and prove themselves to be the greatest Councilor of Din'Lux.

Your Invitation to Atios
Kinfire Council is the boldest step into Atios yet, inviting both strategy gamers and lore-lovers to shape the future of Din'Lux.  Whether you are a retailer looking to bring an expansive, growing universe to your customers or a player ready to dive deeper into a world of politics, power, and shifting alliances, now is the time to join the Kinfire journey.  The city is calling.  Are you ready to take your seat at the Council?
