About this board game
In The Heart Of Darkness is a fast-paced survival horror board game for 1–4 players, with sessions lasting around 30 minutes. Set on the macabre island of Mora, it challenges players to explore sinister locations, confront demonic creatures, uncover ancient secrets, and try to escape alive.
Designed to be quick and easy to learn, the game combines an accessible system with a tense and challenging experience. Its dynamic gameplay keeps the action moving while giving players meaningful tactical choices and difficult decisions. Poor choices can punish you—or even lead to death.
The island of Mora draws on the atmosphere of Gothic Horror novels and movies. Its mysterious locations, dark secrets, and demonic presence create an immersive setting where survival is never guaranteed. Whether played alone or cooperatively, every expedition brings the threat of nightmares closer.
- Players: 1–4
- Play time: approximately 30 minutes
- Modes: solo and cooperative play

Each scenario presents different challenges and goals, encouraging players to adapt their approach rather than rely on a single solution. Adjustable difficulty allows the experience to suit newcomers while still offering demanding challenges for experienced players.
With its intense pace, strategic decisions, and oppressive Gothic Horror atmosphere, In The Heart Of Darkness offers a compact struggle against supernatural danger. Explore carefully, face the island’s creatures, and make every decision count in your slim chance to survive.
