Begloomed, the Card Game

Begloomed the Card Game, is inspired by iD Software’s popular First Person Shooter from 1993. 1 or more players is charged with saving their Mainframe from Glooms. Players use cards to create level maps, rooms, as well as positions for Items and Enemies. Playing is an exciting adventure of exploration, combat, and survival as you try to eliminate the viruses that are invading the Mainframe from another dimension and collect the key codes to unlock the Firewalls. Players begin each Level by drawing and arranging 16 Map Cards so they are all connected. As they move onto each Map Card, they are entering a new Room and then must draw 10 Room Cards and place them anywhere on the Room Mat. Then they draw 3 Item/Weapon Cards and 3 Monsters Cards. These may be placed anywhere in the Room, but must be at least 3 squares away from the Hero's starting position. Line of sight is critical, as players may not target objects behind walls and storage containers. Finally, they move through the Room picking up the Items/Weapons and defeating or avoiding the various Monsters. This process is repeated for each Room until they have picked up the 3 Key Codes to unlock the Firewall and advance to the next Level. Levels increase in difficulty as more Monsters are added every 3rd Level. Adding players means doubling the Monsters per Room and then everyone works together to clear each Level. Players continue playing and clearing Levels infinitely. —description from the designer
