Whether it’s the Abbot, the Tailor or any of the six playable characters, each prisoner is represented by a character card and a custom character dice showing that prisoner’s unique endowment of Might, Cunning and Wisdom – the game’s three traits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEmbarking on a desperate quest to escape, the players must work together using custom dice and item cards to overcome the castle’s many horrors, traps, and challenges - each of which is represented by a large, illustrated chapter card. At the beginning of each game, 15 of these chapter cards are drawn at random from a larger deck to create a unique castle every time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGameplay involves one player revealing a new chapter card each turn, in a motion like turning a page of a book. When a card is turned, the next chamber or passageway into which the prisoners have stumbled is revealed. There is no turn order. Instead, players decide as a group who will turn the next chapter card, and there are often grisly consequences for the one that does!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOnce revealed, the chapter card will explain the situation facing the group and what must be done to get through it. In the style of choose-your-path adventures, most chapters offer the group a choice about how to proceed. Bribe the drunken guards or attack them? Charge the beast or lure it out? Steal from the kitchen stores or keep moving?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach chapter is a mini-game and a variety of mechanics are required to complete them, from RPG-style skill tests for an individual character, to push-your-luck dice rolling as a team, to the playing of item cards collected along the way to bolster the tactical abilities of the group.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhen the players choose to enter (or fail to avoid) combat, all players roll their unique character dice simultaneously to make an attack against the enemy. They need to collectively muster the right combination of Might, Cunning and Wisdom to defeat the foe in question, or risk taking damage. Blocking, Resting, and the use of Weapons, Relics and Potions will help to keep the prisoners alive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe goal of the game is for the group to complete every chapter in the castle deck, then defeat the final boss. To win, they must keep every member of the team alive - if any player is killed the game ends immediately.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Themeborne Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":17997573095475,"sku":"TBL001","price":42.49,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic3572528.jpg?v=1578609546"},{"product_id":"escape-the-dark-castle-adventure-pack-1-cult-of-the-death-knight","title":"Escape the Dark Castle: Adventure Pack 1 – Cult of the Death Knight","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" padding=\"1\" margin=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/alex-crispin\"\u003eAlex Crispin\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/thomas-pike\"\u003eThomas Pike\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/james-shelton\"\u003eJames Shelton\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/all\/themeborne-ltd.\"\u003eThemeborne Ltd.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaytime\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20-45 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpansion for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/escape-the-dark-castle\"\u003eEscape the Dark Castle\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eWelcome prisoner, to a new era of The Dark Castle.

Certain interactions with Carriers can cause prisoners to contract, spread, and even succumb entirely to this rampant atrocity, adding a new dimension and weight to the game’s risk-reward decisions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Themeborne Ltd.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":18136902795315,"sku":"TBL013","price":29.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic4167802.png?v=1578609548"},{"product_id":"escape-the-dark-sector","title":"Escape the Dark Sector","description":"\u003ctable margin=\"1\" padding=\"1\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesigners\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/alex-crispin\"\u003eAlex Crispin\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/thomas-pike\"\u003eThomas Pike\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/james-shelton\"\u003eJames Shelton\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/collections\/all\/themeborne-ltd.\"\u003eThemeborne Ltd.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlaying Time\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20-60 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Age\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 and up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHonors\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgamehonor\/72828\/2021-uk-games-expo-best-new-dice-game-peoples-choi\" class=\"ng-binding\" ng-href=\"\/boardgamehonor\/72828\/2021-uk-games-expo-best-new-dice-game-peoples-choi\"\u003e2021 UK Games Expo Best New Dice Game People's Choice Winner\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ca class=\"ng-binding\" href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgamehonor\/72903\/2021-uk-games-expo-best-new-dice-game-nominee\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgamehonor\/72903\/2021-uk-games-expo-best-new-dice-game-nominee\" ng-href=\"\/boardgamehonor\/72903\/2021-uk-games-expo-best-new-dice-game-nominee\"\u003e2021 UK Games Expo Best New Dice Game Nominee\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca class=\"ng-binding\" href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgamehonor\/72827\/2021-uk-games-expo-best-new-dice-game-judges-award\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgamehonor\/72827\/2021-uk-games-expo-best-new-dice-game-judges-award\" ng-href=\"\/boardgamehonor\/72827\/2021-uk-games-expo-best-new-dice-game-judges-award\"\u003e2021 UK Games Expo Best New Dice Game Judges Award Winner\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpansion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/escape-the-dark-sector-the-collectors-box\"\u003eEscape the Dark Sector: The Collector's Box\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/escape-the-dark-sector-mission-pack-3-quantum-rift\"\u003eEscape the Dark Sector: Mission Pack 3 – Quantum Rift\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReimplements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.vaibhavhospital.com\/products\/escape-the-dark-castle\"\u003eEscape the Dark Castle\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"display: none;\" id=\"bgg-row\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd id=\"bgg-column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: none;\" id=\"bgg-url\"\u003e280748\/escape-dark-sector\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display: none;\" id=\"bgg-forum-url\"\u003ehttp:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/280748\/escape-dark-sector\/forums\/63\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eThe second game in the Escape the Dark series, Escape the Dark Sector is a simple, sci-fi adventure game with a focus on atmosphere, storytelling and player cooperation – perfect for newcomers to tabletop gaming.
