Gloomier: A Night at Hemlock Hall
There's mystery and murder afoot at Hemlock Hall; but this isn't a story about the dashing detective — it's the tale of the unfortunate victims. Compete to tell the most tragic tale; while keeping your opponents healthy and alive. Will you be detained in the dungeons or be poisoned while pruning?
Gloomier uses transparent cards; allowing a character's story — and score — to evolve as cards are stacked upon them. Only the information that's currently visible counts. Modifier cards tell of terrible happenstances and give characters negative points. Untimely death cards end a character's depressing tale. You win if your family is the most miserable when an entire family is killed off.
You don't have to have any prior experience to play Gloomier; but if you are familiar with Gloom; you'll find six new stories and fourteen new guests that can be used with any edition of Gloom! So come to Hemlock Hall; and see what delightful misery awaits!
