📖 About This Game
The Faces of the Sphere expansion is actually the intersection between Deep Madness and its upcoming prequel, Dawn of Madness. In addition to being playable in DM, these figures will also be compatible with Dawn of Madness.
When someone looks into the Sphere, when one is corrupted by its power, the abyss contained within it stares back. In it you begin to see your deepest fears, your darkest secrets, your potential realities. And then those things begin to come to life.
The Sphere contains worlds; galaxies; universes. It is furthermore the key to other dimensions. And in one of those dimensions something has arisen. You could call it a reflection of the investigators' faces. For now, we'll call these beings Sphere Faces.
Sphere Faces are not investigators. Sphere Faces don't necessarily exist to kill investigators or even make the game harder. Instead, they roam around the board and sow chaos wherever they go. Sphere Faces don't activate during the Activation Phase. Instead, they introduce a new phase to the game, called the Sphere Phase. During this phase, the Sphere Face creatures roam around the board, and new ones spawn in various devoured rooms.
