We started the Board Games Fest 2016 with this game. A real adrenaline bomb. The game faithfully catches the atmosphere of "shoot-em-up" video games in a board game version.

"Our world... It's complicated. Many people can't understand. They blindly believe in theories and myths set up. I don't belong to them! Fairy tales and propaganda are all about. I have a much better weapon to understand the world. A weapon with which I can shape the elements I want! This is alchemy!"

This medieval fantasy world hosts some of the most determined, emerging, perhaps somewhat eccentric, alchemist masters, whose ultimate goal is to be the largest, most famous scientific discoverers. Their specialty is the exploration of the elements with the help of certain everyday objects. To do this, alchemy, a great cauldron, and some fictional science are being called upon!

Modern social games can be grouped in several ways. Based on theme / theme (Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Abstract, etc.) and game mechanics / gameplay (deck construction, bluff, dice, etc.). The fanatic likes to play anything but there is always something that is a bit closer to his heart. For example, I like to cultivate raw materials and build empires, but where I really feel, horror role plays, where we embody a certain character on a board in an awesome world. In my new enthusiasm I recently bought one of these games I would like to introduce you to.

Earlier, beside H. P. Lovecraft, we looked at people's "risky" struggle against the enormous power of the elders (Elder Sign board game), where if we can't overcome it, we shut it off from our world or keep in deep sleep to avoid being a threat. This time, however, I show you a game where people are lost. The time has expired, and the elders have come to the world.

The Dark Souls is a video game series that has a surprisingly large and enthusiastic fan base. He deserved the notorious accolades for his "brutal, but fair" gameplay, which he calls attention every time: "You're going to die!"

As I have written, Howard Phillips Lovecraft has been influenced by many co-writers, video games and films over the years. Her legacy has been playing role-playing, books and, of course, board games! In the face of the upcoming horrors, let's see one more closely!

Cooperative games are not new to anyone. Close collaboration for a common goal, race against time, fighting for survival, as a huge logical puzzle where we feel every step of weight! All this in a wonderful storybook world!
