Gloomhaven has completely reworked its campaign
Gloomhaven, the digital adaptation of the hit giant-box board game phenomenon, has just received its biggest update since appearing in Steam early access last year. The Guildmaster Update is effectively a complete rework of the game's campaign, giving players the ability to change up their roster whenever they see fit.
Adventure Mode has been replaced with Guildmaster Mode. Now, you play as a guildmaster in charge of recruiting mercenary bands to re-open trade routes around the countryside. This new approach to the campaign allows for a shifting roster of heroes, so players can change their team up when they unlock a new hero slot, or when developer Flaming Fowl Studios releases a new one.
The update also includes a reworked tutorial and early phase of the game. If you haven't gotten into Gloomhaven, it's very faithful to the board game - and the board game is fairly complex. There's an in-depth turn order to remember, as well as some tricky card mechanics. As it was, Gloomhaven gave you a few rooms' worth of introduction to these rules and then let you loose in the world.
