Gloomhaven is a tactical RPG published by Twin Sails Interactive, set in a dark fantasy universe where you'll explore numerous dungeons and face your opponents in turn-based card battles. And right now, it is available for less than $10 on Steam.

Gloomhaven is the digital adaptation of the tabletop game created by Isaac Childres, released on October 20, 2021, on Steam. Developed by Saber Interactive and Flaming Fowl Studios, this RPG immerses you in a medieval dark fantasy world where you must forge your own destiny.

Thus, whether you're playing solo or in co-op mode with up to four players, you'll explore this world by forming a team of two to four characters, each with unique skills and attacks. Your goal is to complete various missions in dungeons while fulfilling the objectives for each mercenary to earn gold, experience, and unlock new abilities.

However, you’ll need to defeat your opponents in turn-based tactical card battles. To do so, you’ll need to use the right strategy for each mercenary and choose the right part of the card, whether it’s the top or bottom. But be careful, because every action has a cost, and you’ll need to make the right choices.

The Gloomhaven board game campaign is also available, allowing you to complete 95 missions in which you’ll be the master of your own destiny. In addition, the Guildmaster mode, featuring 160 missions, lets you discover new stories, quests, and characters.
