In Chronicles of Light: Darkness Falls (Disney Edition), players work together to form dynamic alliances of Disney and Pixar heroines, including Moana (Moana), Violet (The Incredibles), Maid Marian (Robin Hood) and Belle (Beauty and the Beast). Materializing as radiant crystal versions summoned into the realm, the heroines drive back shadows of infamous Disney Villains and restore the Realm of Light.
Evaluation comments:
“The quality of this game is really top notched.”
“The artistry visually stunning and in a league of its own.”
“There are so many little details that went into making this game that truly embody the Disney/Pixar touch. Each leading heroine has a very detailed backstory, challenges, and a beautiful figurine to move around the board.”
“This was mine and my family’s first TTRPG (tabletop role-playing game). It took a lot of time to get into it, but once we read through the booklet and watched a few youtube videos, we worked our way through it with no problem and lots of fun.”
“The premise of the game is to help guide the four lead heroines around a board in a quest to vanquish darkness (i.e. the villains), while working together to complete missions and ultimately restore the Realm of Light.”
“I love that it’s a collaborative game and that each character’s health is important to the ultimate goal. If you win, you all win together. If you lose, you all lose together. It’s a great way to ensure collaboration and team work.”
“One detail that I really like is the leader badge. The leader badge is passed from one player to the next upon their turn. It informs everyone that the person in possession of the leader badge is taking the helm during that turn. This was very helpful in avoiding one person steamrolling the whole game and allowing for open dialog between everyone.”
“The board has such beautiful illustrations on it, along with all of the cards and tokens. I appreciate each of the villains looking as though they’re coming up with their most dastardly plans. I also appreciate how much thought was put into each mission. Depending on your heroine, you may have to complete some missions independently, while others allow for collaboration and require teamwork.”
“My kids both really enjoyed playing the game and working together to ensure our health points were in the clear.”
“As a mom of two boys, I think it was great to see a game with females dominating”
“I love that this game was created and illustrated by an all woman team.”
