About the game
Street Masters IV: Lament of the Blood Moon is an expansion for Street Masters: Rise of the Kingdom, a co-operative action board game inspired by classic beat ’em up fighting video games. In the aftermath of the Kingdom’s defeat, the world has become a far safer place. No longer united in purpose by shadowy overlords, the world’s gangs have been shattered and retreated into the darkness to lick their wounds. But is all as it seems? Now the dust has settled, powerful new players emerge into the world stage, and none more enigmatic than the leader of a vast empire carved in blood across Japan, known only to her rivals as the Blood Moon. With each passing day, yet more gangs bend the knee to this new mysterious figure, carrying out her orders with brutal efficiency. Can you confront and destroy this emerging threat to the known world, before she gains enough power to seize the throne of the shattered Kingdom, and turns her attention from rival gangs to the vulnerable world beyond? —description from the publisher
