Game Description

Immerse yourself in the epic adventure of Gloomhaven, the renowned 2017 board game published by Cephalofair Games that redefined the dungeon crawler genre. Prepare to experience deep, Eurogame-inspired tactical combat, set in a constantly evolving and persistent world. From 1 to 4 players can embark on an epic journey, averaging 120 minutes per session, taking on the roles of wandering adventurers, each with unique abilities and personal motivations that drive them into this dark corner of the world.

The key to success in Gloomhaven is strategic collaboration. Players will need to join forces to explore menacing dungeons and forgotten ruins, facing ever-new challenges. Every decision made is impactful; the game world is a dynamic entity that molds itself according to your choices, offering a branching story that expands like a "game book". With accumulated experience and loot, you can enhance your characters' abilities and discover new, fascinating locations to explore and plunder, ensuring infinite replayability.

The beating heart of every Gloomhaven session is its innovative card system, which manages both the turn order and each adventurer's actions. Each turn, players select two cards from their hand: the value on the top card determines the initiative for the round, while each card offers a top and bottom power. You must wisely choose whether to use the top power of one card and the bottom power of the other, or vice versa, to maximize the effectiveness of your moves. However, beware: used cards can be permanently lost, and improper hand management can lead to exhaustion and a painful retreat, making every battle a true test of strategy and resource management.
