Gloom Coming to Steam in March 2018
PARIS - Nov. 30, in the year of our Lord 2017
- Asmodee Digital today announced their partnership with Sky
Ship Studios to produce the digital release of Gloom, the
deck-building game that challenges its players to outmatch their
opponents in depressive spectacle, vying to undergo the most
miserable mishaps while sabotaging the competition with happy
occasions. Gloom will slouch onto Steam in March 2018. The game
will be available on tablet platforms later next year.
Partnering with Asmodee will allow Sky Ship to flesh out a slew
of desolate new digital content for their PC launch:
• Friends List: Asmodee knows that misery loves company, so
they’ve enabled players to build a list of friends within the
Gloom platform and chat with prospective opponents before a
session.
• Single Player: Misanthropes who prefer to languish alone can
compete against bots.
• Immediate Bot Replacement: When online players grow too sad to
go on, Gloom will instantaneously swap in AI opponents.
• Karma System: Gloom will use Asmodee Digital’s Karma system to
reward good behavior (not leaving games in the middle of a
match, etc.), allowing players to set a minimum Karma
requirement for players joining their match.
• Cross Platform Play (Coming Soon): With cross-platform
compatibility between devices, Gloom players will be able to
suffer on any system when the game expands to tablets in 2018.
No word on a physical copy version of this game on this system at this time.
