Description

Darkest Night is a cooperative board game where you and up to four friends take on the roles of heroes trying to save a kingdom from the shadow of a Necromancer. Each hero has unique special abilities that you'll need to use strategically to defeat the forces of darkness. With a playtime of 120 to 180 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to develop your plan and work together to save the realm. As you navigate the game, you'll use hand management, card drafting, and dice rolling to overcome challenges and make your way through the kingdom. The game's normal complexity makes it accessible to anyone familiar with board games, and the variable player powers add a fun layer of depth to the gameplay. Will you be able to bring light back to the kingdom and end the Darkest Night, or will the Necromancer's forces prevail?
