DUNGEON DEGENERATES - HAND OF DOOM Fantasy Board Game
Created by Sean Äaberg
RETRO ROLE PLAYING GAME FEEL IN A COOPERATIVE DARK FANTASY BOARD GAME! DUNGEON DEGENERATES - HAND OF DOOM is a fantasy adventure board game from GOBLINKO. Blending a Dark & Dirty Old School role playing game aesthetic with an easy to learn, fast-moving & engaging board game system, DUNGEON DEGENERATES delivers the dark fantasy adventure you want, when you want it. Players choose between four adventuring Degenerates who have been imprisoned for various crimes of survival. As they make their way out of Brüttelberg into the decaying Eastern provinces of the Würstreich they must take on strange & dangerous adventures & fighting against the corruption & decadence that have set into the land. Monsters, cultists, witches, demons & wizards have taken advantage of the rot & are encroaching on civilization. As if that wasn’t enough, the Necromancer’s Hand of Doom points down on the land & disrupts the natural order with Hellish resolve.

Hello Dungeon Degenerates! Dungeon Degenerates - Hand of Doom is totally done & we've getting proofs back from the printer! This has been really exciting!
The box is incredible! Incredible I tell you! The colors just explode & it is super-glossy & thus - durable.
Dungeon Degenerates will shine from your shelves like a LSD light show amongst the drab, muted, photoshop paint schemes!
The core 8 adventurers show up around the rim of the bottom of the box - along with 8 different monsters.
We'll be using Chessex Dice in the game - these are the dice for the Dungeon Degenerates dice bags - the same that will be in each box! Look how great this thing will look on your shelf!
Everything else is looking good - but they're mostly the ozalid proofs - which look like newsprint. Anyhow - that's what's going on here! We got boxes to package all of the miniatures in - should be getting the miniatures from England soon as well! Dice bags are being manufactured. Man! This thing will be in your hands soon enough!

DUNGEON DEGENERATES MINIATURES UPDATE!
almost 7 years ago

DUNGEON DEGENERATES! IT'S TIME FOR AN UPDATE! LET'S TALK ABOUT DUNGEON DEGENERATES MINIATURES!
Here's one of the boys at Hysterical Games preparing a herd of resin-casted Goblin Dogs sculpted by Jason Fairclough. I would like to have a Goblin Dog in real life.
An Ungodly Host of Dungeon Degenerates Monster Miniatures - yet to be freed from their sprues. We're particularly stoked to have our Dungeon Degenerates miniatures sculpted & cast in Great Britain as it is the spiritual homeland of toy soldiers. Jason Fairclough's sculpting is as close to my drawing style as anything I've ever seen & it has been incredible to see him bring life to my characters. It's kind of insane actually. Thanks again to the guys in GHOUL for turning me on to Jason's work.
Dungeon Degenerates miniatures bagged & ready to go! Here they are! I am so excited to get my hands on these! Glarg! While these miniatures aren't necessary to play DUNGEON DEGENERATES - HAND OF DOOM - they ARE necessary in turning your home into a hellish replica of the Wurstreich & cannot be understated as such.
Missing is the Mold Beast. From left - Harpy, Scroglin Sentry, Goblin Chicken Witch, Goblin Dog & Moblin with mystery meat & mace. Make sure to pre-order your Dungeon Degenerates Monster Miniatures so you get them! Oh good - I found a picture of the Mold Beast & his Moulde Hose. Of note - I've been drawing variations on this fungal character for at least 20 years. His first incarnation was "Father Fungus", which I drew when living in the basement of my mom's house that had flooded & there were mushrooms growing out of the walls of the bathroom. It was just part of what was going on those days. I also made the nightmare Spider Cider in my room there - which is in the game as well.
Here are all 10 of the Dungeon Degenerates Adventurer Miniatures! From top left. Angel of Death (Kickstarter exclusive that you can still pre-order), the Hinterlander, Void Witch, Corpse Burner, Mercenary Alchemist, Vermin Hunter, Witch Smeller, Bog Conjurer, Bloodsport Brawler & the Infamous Butcher in all of their Degenerative Glory. So much character, so much flavor!
DUNGEON DEGENERATES - GOING TO PRODUCTION
almost 7 years ago
– Wed, Jul 12, 2017 at 12:21:04 AM
Hello Dungeon Degenerates! We've pulled the trigger & Dungeon Degenerates is going to production with REGENT PUBLISHING SERVICE HK - recommended to us by our friends at Chaosium.
It took us a little longer than we anticipated to thoroughly play-test & tighten up Dungeon Degenerates - but this extra time is allowing us to deliver the best game possible to you. We're looking at receiving Dungeon Degenerates - Hand of Doom in late October/Early November based on REGENT's production schedule. We apologize for the delay - but we're now done with the game & locked into this production schedule & there is still plenty of time to get your game in time for Christmas!
I'll have another update with the OTHER Dungeon Degenerates stuff we're working on soon! Thanks everyone!
WITCH HILL, THE MERCENARY ALCHEMIST & MORE....
almost 7 years ago
– Wed, Jun 14, 2017 at 01:25:12 AM
HELLO DEGENERATES - A LITTLE UPDATE. WE'VE GOT THE LOVELY & TALENTED ENGLISH SCULPTOR JASON FAIRCLOUGH WORKING ON THE DUNGEON DEGENERATES ADVENTURER MINIATURES WITH ROB ALDERMAN CASTING - SAME TEAM AS ON THE FIRST FOUR MONSTER MINIATURES. CRACKING SQUADRON. TAKE A GANDER AT THIS.
THE MERCENARY ALCHEMIST IS LOOSELY BASED ON EUROPEAN OCCULTIST AGRIPPA - A MERCENARY ALCHEMIST HIMSELF. AS I DREW THE CHARACTER I STARTED TO SEE HIM AS A JEAN RENO TYPE. JASON CAPTURED HIS LIKENESS PERFECTLY. IN THE GAME - THE MERCENARY ALCHEMIST WORKS PRIMARILY WITH THE PISTOLS CONCEALED IN HIS VOLUMINOUS JACKET - USING THE ALCHEMY SKILL - HE CAN BRING BACK CERTAIN ITEMS OR TURN OTHER ITEMS INTO GOLD! OR DUST! DEPENDING ON THE SUCCESS OF THE ROLL. JASON IS WORKING ON THE BOG CONJURER NEXT.
I KNOCKED OUT A NEW LARGE-SCALE ILLUSTRATION & POSTER FOR THE GAME - IT'S WITCH HILL!
IT'S THE HAUNTED & ESOTERICALLY IMPORTANT WITCH HILL! A CONTESTED LOCATION OF POWERFUL OCCULT SIGNIFICANCE - WITCH HILL IS A MEETING PLACE FOR CULTISTS, MUTANTS, HERETICS, INQUISITORS, WIZARDS, WARLOCKS, WITCHES & WEIRDOS! YOU CAN GET THE POSTER AT THE GOBLINKO MEGAMALL.
HERE'S SOME UNCOLORED ART FROM A NEW GAME MECHANIC! THESE ARE FOR HIDDEN LOCATIONS ON THE GAME BOARD - THEY CAN BE PLACED OVER THE BOARD TO REVEAL HIDDEN LOCATIONS!
ALONG YOUR ADVENTURES THROUGH THE WÜRSTREICH YOU WILL MEET ALL MANNER OF STRANGE, UNSAVORY & ODOROUS WEIRDOS. ONE OF THESE IS THE WEED WIZARD - A BENT & TWISTED MAN OF INDETERMINATE AGE WHO HAS DEVOTED HIS ENTIRE LIFE TO THE CAREFUL GROWTH, CONSUMPTION & DEALING OF THE NARCOTIC WEEDS OF THE WÜRSTREICH. THE WEED WIZARD HAS SPREAD HIS RESINOUS CREATIONS THROUGHOUT THE LAND & EVEN THE GOBLINS & WITCHES HAVE THEIR OWN FAVORED STRAINS. THE WEED WIZARD'S CONSCIOUSNESS HAS COMBINED WITH THE WEED & IT IS UNCLEAR WHERE THE WIZARD ENDS & THE SMOKE BEGINS - IT IS FOR THIS REASON THAT HE IS A VALUABLE ALLY. AND YES - IT'S A POSTER FROM THE GOBLINKO MEGAMALL.
AGAIN - WE'RE WORKING WITH THE MANUFACTURER TO MAKE SURE THE FINISHED GAME IS PERFECT, WRAPPING UP PLAY-TESTING, DOING LAST MINUTE TIGHTENING UP & ALL THAT.
