Check out the whole Talisman series here and the Warhammer Franchise here!


Welcome to the world of Talisman. A land filled with perilous Quests, Enemies and challenges. But with it comes an adventure you’ll never forget.

Choose from a roster of characters who have unique strengths, weaknesses and special abilities. Select your adventurer carefully as their skills could be the key to you getting your hands on the mighty Crown of Command. A magical artifact that holds the power to destroy all rivals, the Crown of Command has the power to make the bearer the true ruler of the kingdom.

Your adventure to the Crown of Command won’t be an easy one. You’ll need courage, patience and some good dice rolls to survive the dangers you will face. Deadly monsters, tricky traps and magical disasters will try and stop you at every turn!

Talisman: Digital Edition is the officially licensed digital version of the classic fantasy adventure board game, Talisman. Using the 4th Revised Edition rules, choose from 16 characters and venture out on a perilous journey to be the first to claim the Crown of Command.



Grab up to 5 friends online or locally and delve into a Talisman adventure! Online games can be saved and continued at a later date if needed, so no need to worry about time limits! Or if you fancy looking your opponents in the eyes as you face them in deadly combat, Talisman: Digital Edition can be played in hot-seat mode.



Do you see yourself as Good, Neutral or Evil? Depending on which character you decide to play they’ll have a pre-set alignment which can change how you will interact with spaces. However, alignment can be changed throughout the game if you encounter certain cards or spaces.




As you adventure through Talisman anything could happen… Most spaces on the board will require you to draw one or more Adventure Cards. These cards could reveal an Event, Follower, Enemy, Places, Stranger or Objects which could include powerful weapons or magical artifacts.
Adventure Cards are critical to building your character’s inventory and becoming more powerful.


In Game

Before you head to claim the Crown of Command, you need to make sure you’re powerful enough! The challenge ahead isn’t an easy one, the Inner Region is fraught with danger and creatures with high Strength and Craft.

Levelling up your characters Strength, Craft, Lives, Fate, and Gold isn’t too difficult, but you can lose it just as quickly…. You can pick up resources by earning Trophies, visiting certain Place Cards or spaces on the board or through the Objects you find.

When you’re strong enough it’s time to climb the steep steps up to the Crown of Command, where you can conquer all and rule your kingdom.

Account Leveling

Each game of Talisman earns you Experience Points (XP) towards the global leaderboards. Prove you’re the mightiest adventurer!


Talisman is a game like no other… Are you ready to do what it takes to rule the land?

AI cheats horrifically

The AI cheats bad in this game. The developers will tell you that the die rolls are all random, then argue when you prove them wrong. On average, you roll 3 or less in every combat, whereas the AI rolls 5/6 in every combat. On average, you will draw 5 enemies before you ever draw a single useful card, all the while watching the AI draw magic item after magic item.

Brilliant game!

Forget about the "DLC milking strat" complains this game is awesome! If you're into board games in general, just the basic game will keep you entertained for hours upon hours! It doesn't feel limitating or frustrating to play. This game is the epitome of the "easy to learn, hard to master" saying! Atmosphere is great, especially the music (if a bit repetitive at length) and the game is immersive. Talisman is perfect for an evening with a couple of friends and 1 PC only. I strongly recommend!

Good Adaptation

So, this board game is bonkers. I enjoy playing it with my friend because of how wacky it is. If you're looking for a "good" board game, this isn't it. If you're interested in playing something silly, then this is the board game for you. This adaptation is very good. It takes care of all the rules for you, and lets you just enjoy playing. There's options for "house rules", to change up the ending conditions, and various other tweaks to gameplay. (I highly recommend turning on the one that prevents characters from healing once you get the crown of command.) However, there are some problems. The UI lags a bit, and sometimes it isn't clear what you're doing. You can "queue" up spell cards to automatically activate the next time they're capable of being played (such as at the beginning of a character's turn), but if it triggers at the wrong time by accident (say, at the beginning of the wrong character's turn) there's no way to undo it. It would be great if it would ask for confirmation at the appropriate time before being played. Also, sometimes the AI will get stuck. For example, in my last game, one of the AI players got stuck moving back and forth between the same two squares until the game ended. As others have mentioned, there's tons of DLC. I don't mind so much, because if you were playing the IRL board game, you'd have to buy the expansions separately. It's inconvenient that there's not a "complete edition" or something, and the price is a bit steep for what you get, but I don't mind waiting for a sale. Overall, this is a flawed game, but I enjoy it immensely anyway. I got it on sale, and am very happy that I did. Don't take it too seriously, and play with friends who also don't take it too seriously.
