Trapped in the icy depths of a painted snowscape, the wretched souls loathed by gods and forsaken by the world have claimed their cage as sanctuary. This is the Painted World of Ariamis, where a being both dragon and human holds sway: Priscilla the Crossbreed. What secrets and magic does the half-dragon keep? Be cautious as you traverse her frozen domain, for an entity feared by gods must be powerful indeed. . .
Dark Souls: Painted World of Ariamis is a cooperative board game for 1-3 players. Take control of either the Mercenary, Sorcerer, or Deprived as you progress through several chilling and inhospitable encounters, culminating in an epic boss battle against Crossbreed Priscilla herself.
To be successful, you must work together. Explore long devoid of all warmth, and defeat your enemies by learning their attack patterns and weaknesses - but be careful. If a character dies, the game doesn't end, but there will be a cost. If even one of you falls prey to bitter cold steel, the whole party must return to the bonfire, and each encounter resets.
