What is Gloomhaven?

Gloomhaven is a cooperative campaign-driven dungeon-crawling board game designed by Isaac Childres. Set in a dark fantasy world, players take on the role of wandering adventurers with their own personal goals.

Each session is a unique tactical scenario where card-based combat replaces dice rolls, giving players full control over their fate. As you progress through the branching campaign, your decisions permanently alter the world — unlocking new scenarios, characters, and storylines.

Since its release in 2017, Gloomhaven has dominated the board game industry, holding the #1 spot on BoardGameGeek for years and spawning a digital adaptation, a sequel (Frosthaven), and a thriving global community.

Gameplay Mechanics

01

Choose Your Character

Select from 17 unique character classes, each with distinct abilities, playstyles, and personal quest lines that drive the narrative forward.

02

Plan Your Cards

Each round, select two cards from your hand. The top and bottom abilities of each card offer attack, move, heal, and special actions. Choose wisely — once cards are lost, they're gone.

03

Execute Tactical Combat

Navigate hex-based dungeons, manage enemy AI through focus and movement decks, and coordinate with your party to survive increasingly deadly encounters.

04

Shape the World

Your decisions have permanent consequences. Unlock new scenarios, retire characters to open new classes, and watch the world of Gloomhaven evolve around your choices.
