Board game design company CMON have launched their 45th Kickstarter campaign this week, bringing their new Massive Darkness 2 Hellscape board game to fans. The long-awaited sequel to Massive Darkness allows players to fight the source of evil with new art, “incredible minis,” and revamped gameplay for 1-6 players. Check out the 3-hour Massive Darkness 2 gameplay below.
Gameplay and Features
Early bird pledges are available from $100 or roughly £77, and worldwide shipping is expected to take place during September 2021. Inspired by classic RPG games, this board game needs no game master to take you to the depths of Hell and beyond, fighting a variety of mobs and epic enemies to save the world, says CMON.
The game introduces several new mechanics and features that enhance the original experience. For instance, the Darkness tiles now have a more significant impact on gameplay, creating dynamic and unpredictable scenarios. The new classes and abilities offer a fresh take on character development, allowing players to customize their heroes in unique ways. Additionally, the game includes a campaign mode, where players can experience a continuous story arc, making their choices and actions matter more than ever.
Community and Reception
“Massive Darkness 2: Hellscape takes the exciting dungeon-crawling action of the original Massive Darkness and brings it to a whole new level! Take on the role of Lightbringers, a group of Heroes fighting the forces of Darkness in this thrilling cooperative game for 1-6 players.”
The community response has been overwhelmingly positive, with backers praising the improved miniatures and the depth of the new gameplay mechanics. The Kickstarter campaign has already surpassed its initial funding goal, indicating strong support and enthusiasm from the board gaming community. CMON has a history of successful Kickstarter campaigns, and their reputation for delivering high-quality games has undoubtedly contributed to the excitement surrounding Massive Darkness 2.
The game also offers a solo mode, which has been a highly requested feature from fans of the original game. This mode allows players to enjoy the game without needing a group, making it more accessible for those who prefer solo play. The cooperative nature of the game remains intact, with players needing to work together to overcome the challenges presented by the Darkness.
In conclusion, Massive Darkness 2: Hellscape promises to be a thrilling addition to any board game collection. With its enhanced mechanics, stunning miniatures, and engaging gameplay, it is set to provide hours of entertainment for both new and returning players.
