The star portals are dead. Ship City is dying.
But there is still hope.
You are Explorers in a dangerous world. You do the work few others will. The enigmatic ruins of the Great Dark are shunned by most, but not by you. You seek them out, to delve into their shadowy depths and uncover their secrets. The Blight – the cataclysmic scourge that spreads from the ruins – is your beacon. Where there is Blight, there are artifacts to find and mysteries to solve. Ship City is fading, but you and your fellow Explorers can find a way to a better future.
So don your delver suit, step aboard a mighty Greatship and venture down the Slipstream towards the unknown. Your creed: explore or perish!
Inspired by 19th century expeditions, deep sea diving and pulp archaeology, Coriolis: The Great Dark is a roleplaying game about exploration and intrigue. Join dangerous expeditions, navigate the Byzantine schemes of Ship City, and hunt for the keys that unlock the mystery of this Lost Horizon.
I was able to get a review sample of Coriolis: The Great Dark Core Rules to check out. I was able to do a first look video below to check out what was inside the book.
First Look here:
Once done with the first look, my friends and I decided to sit down and learn about Coriolis: The Great Dark. The Core Rules book contained the rules and information to create our explorers, traveling, and much more. This is very unique as you and your team will have to brave the elements to travel to the unknown. There will be a lot of exploration through the lore of the Builders and the ruins they left behind will have you excited to know more. The book also includes an introduction to the game with an adventure called The Black Ziggurat. Your going to enjoy this one and I have to say read everything twice. I also recommend not to get too comfortable in an area as the unknown will have you double guess on a few Hazards that will take the air out of you.
This is an awesome game!
Pro:
- The Black Ziggurat
- an introduction to Coriolis: The Great Dark where you will explore a ruin that provides a lot of crucial information for the game. You will learn what to do and what not to do because you will double guess your self at times.
- Lore
- You will learn about the lore in the series that will have you excited for me. I enjoy archeology and history and with Coriolis, you will be on the path to discover a past that seems distant but also have unimaginable horrors.
