About the game
Into the Mists is a solo roguelite adventure in which you tackle increasingly difficult Combat and Diplomacy Encounters, and then finally the Kings of Ruin themselves. It contains random Challenge cards that alter the Encounters and force you to play more strategically. This expansion of Tainted Grail: Kings of Ruin introduces a new single-player game mode focused only on Encounters and Character advancement. As it contains many spoilers regarding enemies encountered during the game, we recommend you try it after you finish the campaign. Note: This adventure was included as a Stretch Goals in the Gamefound crowdfunding campaign for Kings of Ruin.
