Splendor Duel is here to shake up game night, bringing all the glitz of the original Splendor with a thrilling new twist—perfect for when it's just you and one other strategic mastermind ready to duel it out! This two-player version keeps the classic gem-grabbing, engine-building fun of Splendor but adds an extra dose of strategy (and probably a little bit of gloating).
The shared board has you picking from a 5x5 grid of Gem, Gold, and ultra-rare Pearl tokens—but there’s a catch! You can only grab up to three tokens in a consecutive line, leaving a trail of gaps that will haunt both of you in future turns. With each move, the stakes rise, the choices get trickier, and the grid tightens, making Splendor Duel a fast-paced face-off for those who crave strategy with a hint of sabotage. Get ready for an intense, mind-twisting battle of wits that’ll have you saying, “Best two out of three?”
