BECOME A MEMBER OF THE B.P.R.D.

Inspired by the legendary tales of horror, myth and folklore by Mike Mignola, Hellboy: The Board Game is a fully cooperative experience for 1 to 4 players. You become a member of the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defence (BPRD), ready to investigate occult threats that threaten our very existence. You will explore gothic locations, hunt down clues, discover artefacts, fight horrific creatures and face off against terrifying bosses.

 

CRACK THE CASE

Designed by James M. Hewitt and Sophie Williams, Hellboy: The Board Game features an innovative Case Files system to run each mission for you. Each of the missions in the core game begins by reading a BPRD Case File. This will set the scene for the investigation ahead and give hints about what threats you may encounter. The contents of each Case File are top secret, so the first time you play you’ll have no idea what you’re about to face!

 

DECK OF DOOM!

While the Case File system runs the game, the Deck of Doom is guaranteed to mess with your best laid plans. Each turn, you must draw a card from the ominous Deck of Doom. Each card may spawns new minions, advance the Impending Doom track or target specific agents.

CARD TYPES

Hellboy: The Board Game comes complete with a range of different cards – including Agent Cards with your stats on, Deck of Doom cards, Case Files and lots more. You can see a preview of the cards below.

Case Files

Each case is run by the innovative Case File system. Each file explains how to set up the mission and is sealed in a special envelope, so you’re never sure what’s coming up!

Encounter Cards

As you explore each location, you’ll need to flip over Encounter Cards to see what’s inside each room. Will it be a vital clue or a deadly Frog Monster?
