“As longstanding tabletop gaming fans, we at Secret Door know all too well how difficult it can be to get new players together for a shared experience. Learning rules, perceived complexity, and setup times can create challenges for playing with our loved ones,” said Chris Sigaty, studio head of Secret Door. “Our goal with Sunderfolk is to leverage modern technology to make game night something everyone can enjoy.”
“At its core, Sunderfolk is about the joy of playing together-laughter, strategy, and making memories,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Dreamhaven. “Just like the tabletop games that inspired it, Sunderfolk creates lasting bonds between friends and family with each session. There is something for everyone to enjoy in the game, whether you consider yourself a seasoned player or someone who’s along for the ride. We look forward to watching your journey unfold in the Sunderlands when Sunderfolk launches on April 23.”
Key features include:
- Rediscover Game Night: Up to four players can play Sunderfolk, with each player’s phone or tablet acting as a seamless interface for character management and controlling the action on a television or local/streamed monitor screen for a fresh spin on the classic game night experience.
- Answer the Call to Adventure: Choose to play as one of six distinctive heroes with varying abilities and strategic roles-Arcanist, Bard, Berserker, Pyromancer, Ranger, or Rogue. Heroes can be tailored and customized with weapons, armor, items, and skills as they level up, enabling players to create a robust, well-rounded party equipped to overcome the challenges ahead.
- Step Into a New World: Sunderfolk is a handcrafted fantasy setting full of imaginative locations, exotic creatures, and eccentric characters. Dark forces emerge from the Sunderlands and threaten Arden; it is up to the players to protect the peaceful village and its inhabitants. Arden serves as a base of operations that expands with new shops and services as players progress through the game. Return to Arden between missions to upgrade vendors for more items and equipment and befriend the townsfolk to gain rewards.
- Put Tactics to the Test: In combat, players must strategize positioning and turn order, selecting from their deck of Skill Cards to execute movements, attacks, and use items. Luck is also involved, with Fate Cards playing every turn that can impact their effectiveness. Players gain experience and rewards as they complete missions, gradually unlocking ways to customize decks. The key to victory is understanding the heroes’ strengths and collaborating on a strategy based on the battle map and monsters in play.
