About this expansion

Kingdom Death: Monster – Gorm Expansion is a board game expansion for 1–6 players with an approximately 180-minute play time, released in 2016. It centers on the volatile Gorm, a quarry whose extraordinary anatomy can provide powerful tools for the settlement.

Gorm travel enormous distances throughout their life cycles, reshaping the landscapes with their immense appetites and extreme bodily functions. Their presence brings a distinctive and dangerous force to the darkness, where survival depends on understanding what this unusual quarry can offer.

The Gorm changes dramatically with age. Each stage presents a different aspect of its life and behavior:

  • Young Gorm roam the darkness, devouring anything that moves—and many things that do not.
  • Older Gorm enter a mating season that produces storms of incredible destruction.
  • Ancient Gorm, having lived for hundreds of lantern years, make a final solitary march toward the fabled gormyards.

This life cycle gives the Gorm a powerful sense of scale and progression, from voracious youth to a final, solitary journey. Its extreme biology and destructive habits make it a challenging quarry, while its anatomy offers the possibility of valuable discoveries.

For settlements facing the darkness, the Gorm is more than a threat. Kingdom Death: Monster – Gorm Expansion presents a creature whose life, behavior, and remains can shape the settlement’s access to powerful tools.
