Ares Games announced partnership with Ludus Magnus Studio

April 24, 2019 - 6:16am

Great news for all - Ares Games will be bringing Ludus Magnus Studio's games to worldwide distribution with English language support. This partnership will begin with the retail edition of the huge Kickstarter success, Black Rose Wars. This mage vs mage battle royale for 2 to 4 players, designed by Marco Montanaro, features some of the highest quality miniatures in the market and is just the sort of excellent product to be paired with Ares Games' outreach. While this new version of Black Rose Wars will be different from the one backers received, mostly to fit a better price point, it's gameplay will remain intact.

We love what Ludus Magnus Studio is doing– their games have amazing gameplay value and beautiful components. This young and energetic studio was very successful on Kickstarter, but their creations deserve to reach an even wider audience, and we will work together to make this possible,” said Roberto Di Meglio, Director of R&D of Ares Games.

Ares Games will also be distributing the retail version of Ludus Magnus' current Kickstarter project, Dungeonology. Designed by Diego Fonseca and Danilo Guidi, this game flips dungeon crawling on it's head by posing players as scholars who are studying the dungeon and it's inhabitants rather than ransacking it. As of writing this, it has already been funded six times over proving that it's novel concept is worth the look.
