Description
The dark is calling...
Gather blood, complete rituals, cast spells, and summon demons in a bid to gain the favor of the ancient ones. Will you become the chosen?
The Blessed Dark is a cult-themed mint-tin card and dice game for 2-4 players. It features a mix of push your luck and light take that elements. Players work to build out a Grimoire of spells, gather the blood resources to power them, and conduct rituals (rolling the dice) to see what primordial energies that can harness to summon demons or trigger spells.
This pocket-sized game fits in a custom black Altoids-size mint tin and includes folded instructions, 3 ritual dice, 32 mini-size cards, and 20 blood tokens (8mm red plastic cubes).
