Carnival of Shadows: Sinister Showdown is a thrilling fusion of tableau-building, worker placement, action selection, and deck building mechanics. In this game, players immerse themselves in the dark art of crafting and manipulating custom carnival attractions, where every aspect contributes to the chilling atmosphere.

Your objective is to construct the most captivating and sinister exhibit, earning the favor of Mr. Shadow by executing his nefarious commands in any way possible. With a diverse cast of asymmetrical characters, players construct and oversee their own tableau, recruiting followers and enticing townsfolk to achieve their individual or sometimes shared objectives. Whether your aim is to claim souls, sow chaos, or even protect the innocent, players must utilize their unique abilities and strategies to outmaneuver their rivals and establish dominance over the fairgrounds, all in the pursuit of appeasing their enigmatic master.
