Dark corruption festers beneath the shattered ruins of the Jade Abbey. The daemonic warlord Gelgus Pust, Prince of Sores, seeks to defile the sacred Everspring – a mystical fount of life-giving water hidden beneath the fallen stronghold. Imbued with powerful restorative magic, the Everspring sustains the surrounding lands, but Gelgus Pust intends to poison it with the pestilent blessings of Nurgle, Chaos God of Plagues. Only a desperate band of heroes and mercenaries stands in his way. To stop him, they must traverse a twisted landscape reshaped by Nurgle’s vile influence.

Warhammer Quest: Darkwater is a cooperative fantasy board game for 1–4 players, set in the grim darkness of the Warhammer universe. You and your friends take on the roles of unlikely heroes, working together to cleanse the corrupted Jade Abbey and uncover the sinister schemes of the Prince of Sores. Success depends on teamwork, clever use of abilities, and careful risk management as you push deeper into danger.

Each mission sends you into perilous locations filled with hostile enemies, unpredictable events, and tough tactical decisions. As your heroes survive expedition after expedition, they gain experience, unlock powerful upgrades, and discover valuable loot – preparing them for increasingly deadly encounters and, ultimately, a showdown with Gelgus Pust himself.

Designed for fast setup and smooth gameplay, Warhammer Quest: Darkwater is easy to learn yet offers meaningful depth for experienced board gamers and Warhammer fans alike. The innovative lay-flat map book allows games to be set up in as little as five minutes, so you can get straight into the action. With unique hero abilities and randomly drawn quest cards, no two adventures ever play the same.
