With your party of fearless mercenaries, you will carve your way through terrifying dungeons and dreadful forests filled with increasingly horrific monsters to reap the rewards…or die trying.
In the digital adaptation of Isaac Childres’ ultimate strategic board game (6 Golden Geek awards, “Board Game of the Year” in 2017), developed by Flaming Fowl Studios, you play as a squad of 2-4 mercenaries each with a huge selection of unique abilities.
Acclaimed by both board game players and critics (highest rated game of all time on http://BoardGameGeek.com), this turn-based tactical RPG set in a unique medieval dark fantasy universe, rewards strategic planning and problem solving. Prepare yourself fully for every journey by picking your party members and their abilities wisely, because in the turmoil of battle, your team synergy and tactics are all that will give you the upper hand. The world of Gloomhaven is unforgiving, so if you enter a dungeon ill-prepared, don’t expect to leave.
If you survive your perilous journey, you’ll gain the opportunity to purchase new gear and unlock new abilities & new perks. Those party improvements will help you to overcome malicious bandits, hordes of wild beasts, horrifying demons, or whatever else may find itself blocking your path. Nevertheless, there’s more than just one way to crush your foes and no decision should ever be made lightly, so advance with caution!
