Ravensburger revealed the full cast of monsters for summer launch of Horrified Dungeons & Dragons UK Games Expo. The fifth and latest edition of the company’s popular cooperative tabletop game will set players against four of the classic role-playing game’s most fearsome foes and will also introduce new gameplay elements inspired by the mechanics of D&D. Set in the notorious Undermountain, players can roll the included d20 – a D&D essential – to harness their special abilities against Beholder, Displacer Beast, Mimic and Red Dragon.
UK Games Expo, held at Birmingham’s NEC offered the first opportunity for fans to experience the full character lineup and gameplay. Visitors were able to take to the tables at the Ravensburger stand to pit their wits against the D&D monsters.
“UK Games Expo is an incredible showcase of the best that the games world has to offer. This year, we have been lucky enough to give visitors the first demo opportunity across a raft of titles”
