There’s now more than one way to play the dungeon-crawling RPG Gloomhaven. Originally born as a tabletop RPG, it soft-launched in video game form on Steam Early Access two years ago. Since then publisher Asmodee Digital and developer Flaming Fowl Studios have been building up its content, and as of today, the complete and finalized version of Gloomhaven has officially launched. The Gloomhaven game plays much like its cardboard-based real-world counterpart, mixing tactical RPG elements with randomized dungeon crawling. It’s main attraction is an Adventure Mode with roguelike mechanics and turn-based combat. There’s also a co-op mode for two to four players. But the finished game has 95 new stories and event missions to delve into, on top of the 170 missions of the Guildmaster campaign that were added to the Early Access version. That equals over 200 hours of gameplay, with thousands of abilities to master, gear to collect and monsters to slay. After two years of Early Access, mercenaries will now be able to explore the entire board

Mayfair Games, longtime publisher of tabletop activities, is closing its doors. Mayfair was one of the veteran RPG companies, having been in the business for 36 years. They’ve been watching the tabletop industry grow from the beginning, but this is the end. Mayfair is most famous for publishing the popular Settlers Of Catan game. Now that they’re out of business, who will get it? Asmodee North America, a large (and still growing) business that has been sold all of Mayfair’s remaining brands and properties. “As of today, the management team at Mayfair Games, Inc. announces we will wind down game publishing,” a Mayfair representative said in a statement. “After 36 years, this was not an easy decision or one we took lightly, but it was necessary. Once we had come to this conclusion, we knew we had to find a good home for our games which is when we reached out to Asmodee.” Thanks to aggressive acquisition activity in recent years, Asmodee owned a ton of properties even before they
