Dawn of Madness
Players take on the roles of wanderers trapped in a shifting, nightmarish reality and work together to survive and uncover fragmented memories of their pasts. Through a campaign of linked chapters, players explore locations, confront aberrant creatures and mini-bosses, bind consciousness with allies to perform difficult actions, and collect memories and coda cards that modify abilities and story outcomes. Choices and their sequencing shape each playthrough, influence evolving threats and distortions, and accumulate story points that determine multiple possible endings and which final boss emerges.
