What Is One Deck Dungeon: Forest of Shadows?

One Deck Dungeon: Forest of Shadows (FoS) is a standalone sequel to One Deck Dungeon. The game packs a dungeon crawl experience into a single deck of cards. While it plays the same as its predecessor, with plenty of dice rolling and critical decisions, the game introduces new heroes, encounters, bosses, and even a new poison mechanic.

Published by Asmadi Games, One Deck Dungeon: FoS MSRP’s for $25.
