See all 4 brand new listings. Ha Ha! Take that! And then say another player, seeing how happy this character is, suddenly places an Untimely Death card on it, thereby killing the character and so rendering the points worthless. The lower the self worth of your characters the better because this is ultimately how you will win. You must remember that to get your points towards ultimate worthlessness, only dead characters count towards you total points cost.
The lower the points the better! And the more dead you have, the are the better! This is done when placing any card from your hand onto your own or opponent's character, for there are many fiendish ways to dish out devilment and death to these miserable souls. You getting the idea? Pros first because we want to end this on a low point and do the cons last. Gloom has loads going for it, in particular the really cool see through card mechanic which is unique to this game and works well.
The cards themselves are quite durable and hard-wearing, and are also waterproof so if there are any spills on the table while playing, fear not as you can wipe them down with aplomb!
No aplomb, I said! Oh never mind! Cons for me, include couple of things, because of the very dark nature of the tales this may not be suitable for younger players, so discretion is advised. One more down side, but this one is in itself not an irredeemable one, and that is that the storytelling part of the tale may not be suited to all players, especially those who are not natural storytellers.
So get out there and enjoy Gloom, or should I say, go suffer and be damned till your last dying breath sounds and you have gone to meet the choir invisible….
