About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready to dive into the grimy, dangerous streets of Würstreich with the Mean Streets expansion for Dungeon Degenerates! This beauty adds four new playable characters, each with their own unique items and abilities: the Mendicant Monk, the Fugitive Fop, the Sickly Soldier, and the Unlicensed Surgeon. Your quiet days are over! To make every trip to town an adventure full of risks and surprises, a hefty new deck of Settlement Encounters has been included. Expect new Loot, brand-new Monsters, and even the new, putrid Plague Mechanic, pitting your party against two new missions: 'The Deadly Smell of Disease' and 'The River of Filth'. From the unadulterated urbanity of the fortress city Brüttelburg to shoddy shanty-towns and overripe outposts clinging to civilization with swords, sausages, and sorcery, the MEAN STREETS of Dungeon Degenerates are the würst! This expansion promises to deepen the cooperative and narrative experience, adding more dangers and challenges for players to overcome together. It's the perfect addition for those who already enjoy the base game and want more of the same, only dirtier and more perilous.
