About the game
Towering over the sweeping cornfields, the ominous windmill creaks and sways as its blades turn in the dark autumn sky. There are evils that lurk within the fields, and a darkness growing below the mill’s musty wooden floor. This 16 card supplement for Dark Gothic is themed around the Windmill location as well as the cornfields that surround it. With new cards for Minions, Allies, Gear, and Events, it also features a new Special Location card type for the Cornfields. Sitting below the center line when revealed, the Cornfields gives an extra risk and reward to players that acquire any of the cards above it…collected from within the sinister, maze-like crops that have dried and withered with the taint of evil. —description from the publisher
