Gloom Card Game

List Price:		~~$24.95~~
Our Price:		$17.95

In the Gloom card game, you assume control of the fate of an eccentric family of misfits and misanthropes. The goal of the game is sad but simple: you want your characters to suffer the greatest tragedies possible before passing on to the well-deserved respite of death. You'll play horrible mishaps like Pursued by Poodles or Mocked by Midgets on your own characters to lower their Self-Worth scores, while trying to cheer your opponents' characters with marriages and other happy occasions that pile on positive points. The player with the lowest total Family Value wins.

Now they could just release a Nightmare before Christmas expansion.

Just got mine from Paizo, and in the words of a friend of mine: "It is for the Tim Burton's crowd". The morbid humor is really great. Most of the suffering you can inflict are unusual like "Starved on a Storm" and alliterates too. Really nice artwork and the plastics cards are easy to shuffle, the cards permit nice strategies and one can turn the tide of the game at the last minute. My only complaint is that the rules could be more explicit and some cards are subject to interpretation because of it.
