Gloomhaven 1st Edition (4th Printing)

The fourth printing of the Gloomhaven 1st Edition is a cooperative tactical combat board game that fixes earlier rule and component errors while remaining identical in gameplay to the second and third printings.

Core Game Overview Gameplay: Players act as wandering mercenaries clearing out dungeons and ruins in a persistent, changing world.

Mechanics: Uses a card-driven initiative and action system where cards are permanently lost over time, leading to exhaustion if a scenario takes too long.

Legacy Elements: Decisions made after each scenario alter the branching story, similar to a "Choose Your Own Adventure" book.

What Changed in the 4th Printing?

Error Corrections: All known text and component errors from the first, second, and third print runs are fully corrected.

Packaging Update: Character tuck boxes now use single-use, tear-open plastic wrap instead of resealable plastic bags.

Box Labeling: The back of the box displays the updated printing number.
