## Description

New Dark Souls : The Board Game adventures await in the Explorers expansion, with new enemies, new encounter cards utilising those enemies, and new treasure cards for characters to discover along their adventures. Components for one new mini boss encounter and one new main boss encounter further enhance players’ options and provide fresh challenges. The Explorers expansion also includes 18 terrain miniatures to replace all of the gravestone, barrel, bonfire, and treasure chest tokens from Dark Souls : The Board Game, while the new Mimic ambush rules mean each chest could turn into a dangerous (but rewarding) foe!

Review: Awesome - This along with the Character expansion make the game feel complete
Review: More fun than I expected! - I bought this Expansion after debating wether or not it was nesscarry to just have a few more enemies and replace the cardboard barrels and gravestones with Plastic ones. But Ohhh man the new addation of the Mimics is a whole new Game changer!!. Pretty much every room with a tresure chest has a 2/5 chance of Becomming a mini boss encounter. The rules say you heal after the encounter but have to stay in the positions you ended it in with the same aggro when the suprise boss starts. But if you defeat the suprise boss you get double treasure+Souls! Also there are 2 Decks for the Pre miniboss weak Mimic and the Post Miniboss Vicious Mimic. Also the Barrels and Gravestones are a nice addation. Each one is uniquely diffrent with its own special detail instead of a generic basic plastic mold.
