Welcome to Terrinoth, a land filled with dark forests, shadowy cities, ancient crypts, misty swamps, and all sorts of dark creatures. You've been here before, but now, your true legend is about to begin. In this new version of the popular Descent board game, you and your fellow adventurers will embark on new quests across Terrinoth in a cooperative dungeon - crawl suitable for 1 to 4 players. This edition does away with the dungeon master role and instead uses a fully integrated companion app. The Blood and Flame campaign, with its sixteen quests, allows you and your companions to use 46 pieces of 3D terrain and 40 hero and monster miniatures to forge your own path and create your unique legend. Note that this is not Descent: Journeys in the Dark 3rd edition. With Legends of the Dark, core gameplay elements like combat, fatigue, skills, and items have been re - imagined. The new approach to scenario layout and 3D terrain creates eye - catching multi - level scenarios. The app also brings significant changes to gameplay. It introduces enemies with adaptable strategies, complex status effects, and triggers that are fully managed by the app. You can develop your heroes based on the choices you make in scenarios and uncover a lot of off - scenario activities such as crafting, city shopping, and equipment upgrading. Due to these differences, Descent: Legends of the Dark is not compatible with Descent: Journeys in the Dark content. Key features include an immersive campaign with 14 main quests for 50 - 65 hours of thrilling gameplay, six diverse heroes with unique playstyles, seamless companion app integration that manages the campaign and controls monsters, stunning components like intricately sculpted miniatures and 3D terrain, and high replayability with interactive storytelling. The package includes a Learn - to - Play guide, a Lore Guide, an Assembly Insert, 9 custom dice, 40 plastic figures, 16 plastic ID markers, 18 map tiles, 46 terrain pieces, 6 underlays, 6 hero cards, 40 weapon cards, 18 armor cards, 12 trinket cards, 42 consumable cards, 42 skill cards, 10 injury cards, 4 reference cards, 4 health dials, 12 explorer/sight tokens, 80 condition tokens, 56 fatigue tokens, and 8 card sleeves. The game has a fantasy board game theme, is suitable for ages 14 and above, can be played by 1 - 4 players, and has a playtime of 3 - 4 hours.
How to Use: First, go through the Learn - to - Play guide included in the package. This will give you a basic understanding of the game rules. Next, assemble the 3D terrain using the Assembly Insert as a reference. Choose your hero from the six available options and grab your custom dice, cards, and tokens. Open the companion app and start the campaign. Follow the quests in the Blood and Flame campaign and make choices as you play to develop your hero. During gameplay, use the cards and tokens to manage your hero's skills, items, fatigue, and health. Note that the app will manage the monsters and the overall campaign progress. Things to Note: This game is not compatible with Descent: Journeys in the Dark content, so don't try to mix them. It's recommended for players aged 14 and above due to its complexity. The playtime is around 3 - 4 hours, so plan your game sessions accordingly. Maintenance: To keep your game in good condition, store the plastic figures, map tiles, and terrain pieces in a box or container to prevent damage. Keep the cards in the card sleeves to protect them from wear and tear. If the tokens get dirty, you can gently clean them with a soft cloth. The app should be updated regularly to ensure smooth gameplay and access to the latest features.
