Jaws Of The Lion is out next month
Flaming Fowl Studios and Asmodee Digital are expanding their digital adaptation of dungeon-crawling tabletop sensationGloomhavenwith its first DLC, starring a perennial favourite: cultists.
Jaws Of The Lion is out on May 17th and promises more than 30 hours of new dungeony stuff. That’s a lot of chanting about eldritch horrors. The board game’s designer, Isaac Childres, is overseeing “tweaks and balance”, say Asmodee.
Your mercenaries will need to complete the second scenario of Gloomhaven before they can access Jaws Of The Lion’s 25 new scenarios, plus more enemy types and extra city events. There’s also four extra mercenaries across the Story and Guildmaster campaigns – Red Guard, Hatchet, Demolitionist and Void Warden – to send to their potential dooms. Glooms?
It all sounds very ominous judging from Asmodee’s blurb:
In hisGloomhaven reviewback in October, Nic thought it was “not just a great tactics game in its own right, but a gateway to introduce the Monopoly-scarred to how nifty, gratifying, and ambitious the best digital board games have become over the last several years.”
You’ll be able to sit down at the digital table again on Steam and GOG for £14/€17/$18. Jaws of the Lion is already up for pre-order onSteamwith a 15% discount. If you want to play in co-op then you’ll all need to fork out for the DLC.
