Darkest Doom is a competitive strategy board game with RPG elements set in a dark fantasy world inspired by 17th-century Europe and populated by anthropomorphic animals. Over the course of eight days of Eclipse, players must survive the growing Darkness while competing to achieve one of four distinct victory conditions.

Each player controls one of four powerful Guardians, each with unique abilities and traits. As you explore the region of Betel, you will take advantage of different terrains and their unique effects. Completing quests assigned by Vicar Percival allows you to increase your Guardian’s stats, shaping your strategy and playstyle.

Throughout your journey, you will discover ancient relics that help you progress toward your chosen path to victory. Each round represents a new Dawn, during which players replenish their hand from various decks, including Equipment, Spells, and Traps. Card effects vary depending on your character’s development, adding depth and replayability.

The game also includes a Bot Guardians mode, enabling solo play or games with automated opponents. Darkest Doom combines exploration, character progression, and strategic decision-making into a rich and immersive dark fantasy experience.
