About the game
What you do in a play session
You know that classic fairy tale vibe we all grew up with, but with a much darker and more sinister twist? That is exactly what Dark Tales delivers, and the Snow White expansion arrives to give that atmosphere a serious upgrade! If you already enjoy the base game, get ready to see the board gain new layers of mystery and danger.
In this expansion, the classic Snow White story gets a peculiar makeover. Forget the cute Disney version; here we have a prince who might be quite spooky and dwarves who guard mysterious secrets. The game introduces new characters and iconic items—such as the infamous poisoned apple and the glass coffin—which aren't just there for decoration. They are fundamental pieces of your strategy! The interaction between event cards, characters, and magic items dictates the pace of the game. Using an item at the wrong time can be a disaster, but the right combo can completely shift the course of your match.
Since Dark Tales thrives on combinations, the arrival of these new elements ensures that every game is a unique experience. The new items change the power of your moves, creating synergies you haven't seen before. It is the perfect opportunity for those looking to explore new endings and developments for the dark plots the game system provides. If you enjoy managing your hand with precision and hunting for the perfect card sets to win, this expansion will add that layer of unpredictability needed to make your game nights even more intense and full of twists!
