Hello NeRBs and welcome to spoopy season week 2! 

This time our horrific cast plays the most miserable of games: Gloom! 

Inspired by the drawings of Edward Gorey, this game features four families of weird outcasts. The players aim to make their own family horribly sad and adversary families as happy as Laurie (he is happy most of the time I swear!) by playing events and modifiers on top of them.  

Cousin Mordecai was having a fabulous day looking at ducklings when he suddenly fell down a well. Oh no!

Of course, it's one of Dom's favourite games. Could you guess?

Enjoy!

The perfect game for this group. Every opportunity to be creative. This is going to be a fun watch. 🖤

Is it intentional that the names include Ken?

Don is top form this game. I know that’s not his name. I could have gone back and fixed the autocorrect, but I didn’t. I’m sure Don isn’t the type of fellow to hold a grudge. 😆

Endija

The name overlay at the start of the uncut video seems to show the wrong names/order. The non-patreon version is correct though. :)

Idk how I feel about the first game my name shows up as a patron is a game where you try to be as miserable as possible! If I didn’t know any better I’d be upset haha. But I guess that’d be the point 😜

What happened to Ken? Did you eat him?

Paul Harries

How did he taste? Terrible. 😔

Paul Harries

Oh I'm so much happier for a longer video. I'm almost miserable. 😔

I love Gloom! When we play kind of half forget the competitive element and end up stacking negative point cards on other player’s family members because it makes their stories even more hilarious. In one game Lord Wellington-Smythe had a small decks worth of cards on him because suddenly every card every player had made narrative sense and he had the MOST miserable life. Now every time we play we continue his story, as if it was a continuation of the previous game 😂 RIP Lord Wellington-Smythe.🪦 He’s suffered a lot of tragedies in his lifetime but his greatest is how often he is brought back to life just to suffer again 😔

No one wants to be covered in piss? I beg to differ Mr Sullivan
