About the game
The Lantern Festival, a cancelled expansion, had most of its elements incorporated into the Gambler's Chest. The Lantern Festival greatly extends the campaign adding rules and story events that proceed the fall of the Watcher. It comes with two super mysterious monsters, The King & The Scribe, The Twilight Cloak miniature and the Male and Female Great Game Hunter Miniatures! The Great Game Hunters hail from the only large and greatly established human city in Kingdom Death. They are sometimes friends but usually are foe. By defeating the Watcher, the survivors are plunged into a series of increasingly dangerous challenges that ultimately (of course) will lead to their death!
