Hill  \nIt is the mid-1880s in the Southwest United States, and the small mining town of Brimstone has found Dark Stone up in the hills; anew precious mineral with magical properties, rarer than gold… and more dangerous! Digging for it greedily, prospectors came from all around, not knowing the consequences of their actions until it was too late! In a flash, the town of Brimstone was consumed, the epicenter of a cataclysmic magical explosion, ripping open portals to other worlds down in the mines and unleashing a great Darkness to spread across the land!  \nNow hordes of demons pour from the mines to ravage the countryside, and the sky grows black with swarms of nightmarish creatures descending on unwary travelers in the night! While most flee in terror, some heroic individuals come forward to help hold back the Darkness, fighting their way into the mines to seal these gateways, and maybe find a fortune of their own along the way!  \nGAME CONTENTS  \n• 1 Rulebook (40 pages)  \n• 1 Adventure Book (64 pages)  \n• 8 Small White Dice  \n• 8 Small Red Dice  \n• 1 Eight-Sided Die  \n• 1 Peril Die  \n• 1 Entrance Map Tile  \n• 8 Unique Room Map Tiles  \n• 4 Standard Room Map Tiles  \n• 6 Passage Map Tiles  \n• 18 End Cap Map Tiles  \n• 6 Gate End Cap Map Tiles  \n• 4 Plastic Hero Figures  \n• 6 Plastic Tentacles  \n• 6 Plastic Stranglers  \n• 12 Plastic Void Spiders  \n• 3 Large Plastic Night Terrors  \n• 1 XL Plastic Goliath  \n• 4 Hero Character Sheets  \n• 6 Enemy Record Sheets  \n• 9 Extra Large Reference Cards  \n• 18 Mine Map Cards  \n• 32 Gear Cards  \n• 15 Mine Artifact Cards  \n• 20 Mine Encounter Cards  \n• 10 Low Threat Cards  \n• 10 Med Threat Cards  \n• 10 High Threat Cards  \n• 5 Epic Threat Cards  \n• 7 Growing Dread Cards  \n• 15 Darkness Cards  \n• 10 Personal Item Cards  \n• 12 Loot Cards  \n• 12 Scavenge Cards  \n• 15 Targa Plateau Encounters  \n• 12 Targa Plateau Artifact Cards  \n• 18 Targa Plateau Map Cards  \n• 6 Targa Plateau Threat Cards  \n• 8 Starting Gear Cards  \n• 12 Hero Starting Upgrade Cards  \n• 2 World Cards  \n• 4 Side Bag Cards  \n• 7 Reference Cards  \n• 1 Depth Track  \n• An assortment of Die-cut Counters  \n• 1 CD Soundtrack of Original Music  \nGame Overview  \nShadows of Brimstone: City of the AncientsTM is a fastpaced, Cooperative, dungeon-crawl boardgame set in the Old West, and mixed with Unspeakable Horror! Each player creates a character, taking on the role of a classic Western Hero Archetype, such as a US Marshal, Bandido, Gunslinger, or Saloon Girl. Forming a posse of Heroes, the players take their characters down into the mines in the foothills surrounding the demonically overrun town of Brimstone. The Heroes can embark on a variety of different missions, from finding and sealing a gateway to another world, to rescuing a farmer’s son who was hauled off in the night by a horrible creature. The Heroes explore a dynamically generated mine, overcoming dangerous encounters and fighting savage creatures, while collecting up useful Gear and ancient Artifacts to help them during their adventures. Heroes can even find portals to other worlds, stepping through to continue their adventure on the other side.  \nHero characters can be kept from game to game in a campaign system, earning experience and going up in levels to increase their skills and gain new abilities. The Heroes can also visit local Frontier Towns between adventures, spending their hard-earned loot and re-supplying for the next mission.  \nSo load up yer’ six shooter, throw on yer’ hat and poncho, and gather the posse, the Darkness is coming, and all hell’s about to break loose... in the Shadows of Brimstone!  \nPlayers  \nShadows of Brimstone: City of the AncientsTM is a fully cooperative game for 1-4 players. If combining this Core Set with another Core Set, this can be increased to 5-6 players. All of the players work together against the game itself and the difficulty is scaled based on the number of Heroes taking part in an adventure.  \nGAME COMPONENTS  \nDice  \nThe ga","cbCaihA4CEdziXRF","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihA4CEdziXRF","pdf",6648980,"English","# Game Overview\n## Players\n## Game Components\n### Dice\n### Re-rolls\n### 8-Sided Die and Peril Die\n### Wounds, Sanity Damage, and Tokens\n### Dark Stone and Grit","[{\"question\":\"How many players can play Shadows of Brimstone: City of the Ancients?\",\"answer\":\"It supports 1–4 players.
