About this expansion

The Dresden Files Cooperative Card Game: Expansion 2 – Helping Hands is a cooperative card game expansion for 1–5 players, released in 2017. It adds two new book decks and two new character decks, bringing fresh challenges and strategic options to your scenarios.

The Proven Guilty and White Night book decks introduce distinctive Showdowns. In Proven Guilty, players spend Fate and roll for Cases, while White Night focuses those options on Foes. To succeed, you must clear Cases or defeat Foes before reaching their respective Showdowns, each of which also features its own obstacles, challenges, and card interactions.

  • Sanya: Her Hand of Hope Stunt pulls a Case close and adds clues to it. Her Talent increases Fate Point payouts when discarding for fate.
  • Molly Carpenter: Her Talent is readied by discarding, then lets you alter one die when playing a card. Her Stunt copies another player’s currently unused Stunt.

Sanya’s deck offers a useful connection to Michael Carpenter’s deck, with a contrasting approach to helping the team handle a Case. Molly’s deck provides a powerful dice-manipulation engine, especially because about half of her cards involve a dice roll.

Whether you want to improve Fate generation, optimize dice results, or duplicate an ally’s signature ability, Helping Hands expands the range of cooperative decisions. The Dresden Files Cooperative Card Game: Expansion 2 – Helping Hands adds exciting new ways to approach the scenarios of your choice.
