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.

Dungeon Degenerates - Hand of Doom - Demo Game 12-13-2016
We ran another demo game at Guardian Games in Portland tonight. Game went quite well. We ran through "Quest For Sausage" again. I've played this adventure many times & it actually gets more fun each time I play it.
I played as the Banished Sorceror, Noah played as the Infamous Butcher & a fellow whose name I can't remember played as Alley Cat.
We all decided to take extra WEAKNESS cards which add to character development & story in exchange for causing extra trouble in the game as well as getting us more experience points. We made our way to the Bandit Camp north of Pigskin Port & spent most of the game battling Bandits, Weirds & Ogres until we had enough dead bodies to either supply a manufacturer of NECROWURST or WEIRDWURST. Eric has been doing some great work on the game, coming up with all sorts of fun tricks & twists that make Dungeon Degenerates more fun each time we play!

IN OTHER NEWS - IT'S TIME TO FINISH UP YOUR DUNGEON DEGENERATES BACKERKIT SURVEYS! YOUR CARDS WON'T BE CHARGED UNTIL SPRING NEXT YEAR - BUT WE'RE TRYING TO GET NUMBERS IN SO WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE DEALING WITH IN TERMS OF PRODUCTION! BACKERKIT IS HERE.
You offer the Bog Conjurer a share of the rewards from your mission if he will help you get back to Pigskin Port safely. You’re not entirely sure how useful he’ll be, but you figure you’d better not take any chances with getting stuck out here in the swamp. As you make your way through the foul-smelling swamp, the Conjurer seems to consult with his crow in a series of absurd squawks, as if debating the best route through the Wetlands. Rolling your eyes, you follow closely behind, hoping for the best. You notice the Conjurer walks with a limp, leaning on his decorated staff for support - your party makes slow progress along the overgrown pathways towards the ancient & ominous Black Tree.
As you march South, eyes peeled for danger from any direction, the Alchemist tells old wives’ tales about the tree. As the legend goes, the damned write their sins on scrolls & hang them from the branches of the massive dead tree. Its limbs absorb all the sins of these heretics & the entire tree has become a black & twisted thing of pure evil. The Conjurer claims that the scrolls hanging from its branches are actually penned by the dreaded Swamp Hag - lists of names of the children she has stolen away from the people of Gutfish Ford.
The Conjurer’s story trails off & he stops dead in his tracks, peering around him into the morning fog. You hear it! The beat of wings above you betrays the approach of a hideous avian menace - a feral woman with wings in place of arms & talons in place of feet! She dives & nearly misses the Conjurer, who ducks in time to avoid the brutal talons. His crow frantically caws & takes to the air, fleeing the hunting monstrosity, which screeches into the chill air & circles above you.
The Alchemist’s gunfire fills the air with lead but the thing moves too quickly in & out of the thick patches of fog blanketing the swampland. You hurriedly scan the surrounding area, looking for some cover, or at least something you can throw. Just off the path amidst a thicket of lichen-coated foliage sits a solitary hut that you hadn’t noticed earlier. How could you not have seen it? You drive the vaguely disturbing thought from your mind & rush towards the doorway with the Alchemist following close behind you.
The Conjurer’s shouts stop you from plunging headlong into the jaws of an absurd & atrocious beast! The hut uproots before your eyes, lurching towards you on clawed feet, the doorway a gaping mouth lined with terrible teeth! You step aside at the last moment as it lunges toward you, snapping its wicked teeth! Cackling laughter drifts through the fog above you, then the rush of air signalling the harpy’s dive…
WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT?
