About the game

What you do in a play session

Is your party already at level 3 or higher in 'Four Against Darkness,' and have you grown tired of facing the same old creatures? Get ready! 'Fiendish Foes' introduces a fresh batch of challenges to spice up your sessions. This 8-page micro-supplement, designed for those who enjoy the Print & Play system, injects more danger and unpredictability into your explorations. Forget the monsters you're used to; things here are more sinister and lethal. Prepare to face creatures like blood-sucking birds and jelly-cubes that will test your nerves. To survive these renewed threats, you'll need plenty of cunning and a good dose of luck to avoid a 'total party kill.' The additional random tables ensure that each new delve is a surprise, keeping the tension high and the experience consistently fresh. It's the kind of expansion that makes you think twice before opening that dusty door.
