Card Game 2nd Edition","description":"\u003cp\u003ePrepare yourself as you enter the dark and miserable world of Gloom, created by renowned RPG designer Keith Baker! You, the player, take control of one of four, miserable families, all as eccentric as the each other and full of misfits and misanthropes. During a game of Gloom, you have one simple goal: To ensure your family has the most miserable and sad time possible before meeting their untimely, yet rather comforting demise. It is said that the quality of afterlife is made better by the gloomier of existences beforehand, hence the need to put your family through the worst days of their lives. Use cards such as 'Mocked by Midgets' to lower your families' self-worth and make them feel unwelcome and unloved and just utterly miserable, while at the same time trying to boost your opponent's families, making them feel joyful and happy with such events as weddings which rapidly increase a players self-worth! The player with the lowest family self-worth at the end of the game will be declared the winner! Printed on rather unique transparent cards, Gloom allows players to place modifiers on cards with other players able to see the modifiers throughout!

When Boils Malone brought his family overseas to \"get away from the heat,\" he wasn't expecting quite so much rain! Adding an extra level of strategy, new persistent effect icons on cards allow their special effects to continue to be active even if covered by another card. A persistent effect ends only when the attached character is killed. Also inside are five Unwelcome Guest cards. Deal one or more face up to the table's center at the start of the game. Guests \"follow\" the card types noted on them; no matter where it currently is, a living Guest immediately moves to join the family of the character on which one of its \"trigger\" cards is played. All its Modifiers are moved with it, and it's considered a member of that family until it moves again. This may delay the game's end if a final play draws a Guest to the near-winner's family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Atlas Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56050189697402,"sku":"ZBG-ATG1353","price":11.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/9970\/8282\/files\/Gloom-Card-Game-2nd-Edition-Unwelcome-Guests-Expansion.jpg?v=1760985223"},{"product_id":"gloom-card-game-2nd-edition-unhappy-homes-expansion","title":"Gloom!
