Heiko’s insider tip on how to finally turn your friends into nerds
While it’s difficult to convey the allure of a cozy board game night, the digital version does a pretty good job, according to Steam users: A total of 84 percent would recommend the game.
But what is it all about? At its core, Gloomhaven is a dungeon crawler in which you experience your own fantasy story in the campaign – even in co-op with friends if you want.
On the one hand, of course, you have to get in turn-based combat, which are a bit reminiscent of XCOM and other genre representatives, beat through the levels of the dungeons. On the other hand, you will also be there regularly important decisions are set that will affect the course of your current adventure or even the whole campaign.
You build up the eponymous city of Gloomhaven, let your heroes level up and send them into retirement after the work is done to replace them with talented offspring. It can keep you glued to the screen for the whole night.
