Darkest Dungeon: The Board Game: The flow of a campaign
As you can read in the rulebook, a campaign is made of 11 quests that are grouped in 4 Acts. In the first 3 acts you’ll have to deal with the imminent threats (that are the bosses). Once you’ve sent them to the abyss, you are ready to storm the Darkest Dungeon and its final 2 quests. In this article, we will focus on the first 3 acts, since this is the part of the campaign that changes the most each time you play and is affected by the expansions.

Darkest Dungeon: The Board Game – Questing and Exploration
In Darkest Dungeon: The Board Game, players portray a group of heroes who have answered the Heir’s call and decided to take the carriage to the estate. Once there, they’ll meet other adventurers and will be asked to form teams, in order to go on expeditions, venturing off further to perform various tasks. However they may seem, these tasks are not random. They are a series of quests, set forth by the Heir, that need to be achieved – rituals of purification, salvaging of important relics, cleansing lairs, decimating monsters, and much more.
Darkest Dungeon: The Board Game – Heroes and Stances
In Darkest Dungeon: The Board Game, players take on the roles of heroes who heed the heir’s call and take the carriage to the hamlet that lies on the outskirts of the estate. While the lodging of the hamlet’s derelict inn may be unsuitable for most, it is a fitting place from which to commence the adventures and demanding quests that the heir proffers. These adventures are not for the light-hearted warrior or novice practitioner. That’s precisely why the heir summoned as many heroes as he could!
