About this board game
Beyond the Rift: A Perdition’s Mouth Card Game is a cooperative card game for 1–4 players, with sessions lasting around 120 minutes. Set after the heroes overcame Perdition’s Mouth: Abyssal Rift, it follows their journey through the land of Zanziar.
Explore six branching campaigns, each focused on one of the game’s six heroes. Take the role of a stoic warrior, spunky magus, dwarven tinkerer, zealous halfling priest, proper rogue, or rage-filled Berserker as the story uncovers the sinister past of Zanziar and its inhabitants.
Every hero relies on two basic resources: Action Points and a personal Hero Deck. Drawing from that deck determines the actions available, while Action Points let heroes play cards, draw more cards, manipulate enemy positions, and activate special abilities.
- Cooperative play for 1–4 players
- Six campaigns with branching paths
- Six distinct heroes, each with a dedicated focus
- Action Points and Hero Decks to manage
- An Evolving Deck System for growing card power and synergy
Survival depends on balancing cards and Action Points while responding to the many threats encountered along the way. Careful resource management is central to every decision, especially as heroes work together to overcome danger.
Through the Evolving Deck System, heroes acquire items that replace cards in their original starting decks. As campaigns progress, these customized decks become more powerful and develop new synergies, helping each hero grow into their role.
With its character-focused campaigns, card-driven actions, and unfolding story, Beyond the Rift invites players to discover Zanziar while confronting the secrets carried by both the land and its heroes.
