Every Fourth Wing Board Game Adaption You Can Buy Right Now

Rebecca Yarros' Empyrean series has taken the romantasy genre by storm over the past few years. With three books so far, an upcoming graphic novel, and a TV show in the works, there's never been a better time to be a fan of Fourth Wing.

And while the TV series is likely the most exciting adaptation the books will ever see, Fourth Wing has already quietly been making its way into the tabletop space over the last couple of years. There are now four Fourth Wing board games you can buy, and probably more on their way.

The rise of romantasy tabletop games is a fairly recent thing. For the Empyrean series it all began with the release of Priorities Fourth Wing Edition last year. Since then we've gotten an original strategy game and two branded Monopoly games out of the franchise. This same tabletop arc also seems to be happening for Sarah J. Maas' ACOTAR series simultaneously.

Fourth Wing: Rise of the Wingleader is the only original board game for the series so far. Created by Goliath Games, Rise of the Wingleader is a strategy board game that incorporates cards with custom artwork, dragon pieces, and a round game board. You also get a nice metal bookmark alongside the board game itself.

Priorities is a popular party game that requires players to essentially rank their "priorities" of certain topics. The Fourth Wing version of that is a re-skin of the original game and is just as straightforward. There's a huge stack of cards featuring things from the books and players pull five cards and rank them from best to worst. This is a cooperative game , so everyone in the squad is in this together.

Monopoly Deal: Fourth Wing follows the same standard rules of Monopoly Deal, but with an Emperien series glow-up. The primary goal of the game is to be the first player to successfully collect three complete property sets of different colors. Each player will also be given a Signet card that will give them a unique special ability.

Fourth Wing Monopoly functions like regular Monopoly, but with easter eggs sprinkled in from the books. Instead of the classic game pieces, there are seven different colored metal dragon pieces representing the different types of dragons in the game. This includes Violet Sorrengail's Tairn (Black) and Andarna (Golden Feathertail) as well as Xaden's Blue Daggertail Sgaeyl. The game also replaces the usual property pieces with Outposts and Strongholds which can be used to claim notable locations from the books, like the Parapet, the Gauntlet, and Aretia.
