About the game

What you do in a play session

You know that creepy feeling of being watched from the shadows? In Shadows of Brimstone: Ghosts of the Damned, that feeling becomes a terrifying reality. This supplement expands the experience within the mines of Brimstone, bringing a heavy atmosphere of hauntings where the fallen simply refuse to rest in peace. If you thought your heroes' lives were already hard, buckle up, because the dusty passages and dimly lit rooms are now infested with damned spirits.

What exactly is in the box? You get 15 new cards that inject more variety and danger into your campaign. The content is split into three categories: Gear, Mine Artifacts, and Mine Encounters. For those who love looting, items like the 'Holy Charm' and 'Angel's Tears' can be the thin line between survival and a gruesome end. If you're looking for artifacts with more 'character', 'San Pedro's Lantern' and the 'Cross of Hidalgo' provide the mystical edge needed to face the supernatural.

But don't think it's all about getting cool gear. The supplement also adds disturbing encounters. Imagine your posse hearing 'Voices from Beyond' or, even worse, witnessing 'Bleeding Walls' while desperately searching for an exit. It's the kind of content that turns exploration into a true nerve-wracking test, forcing the group to cooperate even more to avoid becoming just another ghost wandering the mines. If you enjoy the blend of Weird West and horror and want to make your sessions more terrifying, this supplement is the perfect spice to make your players dread every new card revealed.
