Gloom is a unique, dark humor card game where the goal is to make your characters' lives as miserable as possible. You control a family of eccentric and unfortunate souls. By playing cards like "Pursued by Poodles" or "Mocked by Midgets," you lower their self-esteem and accumulate negative points. At the same time, you try to improve your opponents' characters' lives to give them positive points. The player with the most miserable family at the end of the game wins. Gloom's transparent card design makes it easy to see how different cards affect each other, adding an extra dimension of strategy. Are you ready to dive into Gloom's dark world?
