A War of Whispers - Collectors Edition - STG1805EN

A War of Whispers Collector's Edition (STG1805EN) by Starling Games is a fantasy strategy board game for 2 to 4 players, aged 14 and up, with games typically lasting 45 to 60 minutes. Players don't control empires directly — instead, they place agents in the courts of five warring fantasy empires, secretly betting on which will rise and which will fall. Your score depends entirely on how well your hidden allegiances align with the outcome, creating a tense game of manipulation, deduction, and shifting loyalties. The Collector's Edition upgrades the standard release with premium components suited to collectors and dedicated strategy gamers alike.
