Atlas Games adds to its already great list of options for their game Gloom with Gloom of Thrones!
Introduction
Atlas Games has been providing great gaming experiences for some time now. Going all the way back to its initial release of Gloom in 2004. The gloom series has added a second edition in 2014 as well as building the series with Cthulhu Gloom, Fairytale Gloom, Munchkin Gloom and Gloom in Space. Looking at the previous titles it would only make sense to add the world of Westeros to the collection with Gloom of Thrones. The point of Gloom is to score points through suffering. This may sound antithetical to a happy gaming experience but I assure you that this is joy born out of your character’s misery.
Initial Thoughts
Gloom of Thrones comes in a Tuck Box with two decks of 55 cards each. The illustrations are fabulously campy and designed by Brian Patterson with graphic design by Nicolas Glusenkamp. I like the fact that the game has enough cards for decent gameplay without being too cumbersome…
