Dark Darker Darkest is an intense cooperative survival horror game in
which a team of urban survivors try to fight the darkness in an unsettling
location: the house of Doctor Mortimer, which holds the antidote to a virus
turning the world into an army of undead.
Players
must gather the optimal tools to open doors, control destructive fires that
slowly destroy the locations of the game, and battle the endless hordes of
terrifying creatures that will do anything to slaughter this fragile group,
while outsneaking lurking creatures and the eye of the ever-present security
cameras guarding the secrets of the house.
The
game uses innovative mechanisms for group-forming and mixes item management
(using a color-code system), exploration, stealth, and icon-driven combat to
form an intense tactical experience in a strongly thematic setting riddled with
surprises and variation. All the creatures and other challenges are controlled
by the A.I. of the game system. The board is modular, creating a unique
narrative experience for each session.

Players
try to enlarge their fortune in an ever fluctuating market by trading shares at
the opportune time to get the biggest possible profit. The player who was
skilled and lucky enough to have the most money at the end of the game, wins.
Each
player has a hand of nine cards; eight of them match the company shares that
are available for purchase, while the ninth card is a “Bank Holiday” card. Each
of the eight companies has 2-5 shares available, depending on the number of
players, and each player starts with a randomly drawn share. At the start of
the game, place six movement tiles (numbered 1-6) in one bag and six action
tiles (trade x 3, rank +1, rank -1, no action) in another bag.
Each
round, the starting player draw one tile from each bag. If he draws a rank +1
or rank -1, he moves one share price indicator (a.k.a. “brick”) of his choice
up or down one rank on the movement track that organizes the company bricks. If
he draws a trade, each player buys and/or sells one share to the bank. Players
then simultaneously choose one of the two cards in their hand and reveal them.
If no one played a bank holiday card, then in turn order, the brick associated
with each company card advances on the movement track a number of spaces equal
to the movement tile drawn, ignoring occupied spaces. The value of a company’s
shares depends on the location of its brick on the movement track and its
position relative to all of the other bricks. If one or more bank holiday cards
were played, the bricks move only half the distance or don’t move at all.)
Players
each draw a new card, and the bags pass to the next player in clockwise order,
who becomes the starting player for the next round. If a trade tile was drawn,
return all tiles to their respective bags first. The rounds continue until one
or more company bricks reach the end of the movement track. At the end of that
round, players cash out their holdings and whoever has the most money wins.
