By <a class="author" href="/author/ChristianHoffer/"><span>Christian Hoffer</span></a> <time> - March 19, 2022 10:13 am EDT</time> <br><em>Critical Role's</em> tabletop game imprint has provided fans with a first look at two of its upcoming games. Darrington Press was founded last year as a tabletop games arm for<em> <a href="/category/critical-role/">Critical Role</a>,</em> the franchise anchored by a popular web series featuring a group of voice actors playing<em> Dungeons & Dragons.</em> To celebrate the 7-year anniversary of the<em> Critical Role</em> show, Darrington Press provided fans with a sneak peak behind two of its upcoming games – <em>Guardians of Matrimonia</em> and <em>Syndicult.</em><br><em>Guardians of Matrimonia</em> is a new board game where players take on the role of an "elite fantasy wedding team" that tries to prevent anything from ruining a couple's special day, whether that's dragons, liches, or magical mishaps. The game has both a co-op and PVP mode, in which players still have to work together to pull off the wedding, but also compete for tips. Darrington Press showed off character art of the Ale-Chemist, one of the four Guardian types in the game who is a pro at mixing beverages. The art (by Monica M. Magaña) can be seen below: <br>Darrington Press also showed off an early look at<em> Syndicult,</em> a new roleplaying game created by Matthew Mercer. The game is set in a world "where underground syndicates vie for magical powers in a world of artifacts, mysteries, and crime." No further details were provided about the gameplay of<em> Syndicult,</em> but Darrington Press did show off a comics panel attached to the upcoming game. <br>Darrington Press has released two products so far. The first is the<em> Uka'toa</em> board game themed after the legendary sea demi-god seen in<em> Critical Role.</em> The game is worker placement game in which players try to keep their sailors alive as Uka'toa slowly consumes the board. More recently, Darrington Press published<em> Tal'Dorei Reborn Campaign Setting Guide,</em> an updated version of the<em> Tal'Dorei Campaign Setting Guide</em> released several years ago by Green Ronin Press.<em> Tal'Dorei Reborn</em> not only provides players with details on how to play a D&D game within the<em> Critical Role</em> continent of Tal'Dorei, it also gives some surprising updates about the heroes of Vox Machina who appeared in<em> Critical Role's</em> first campaign.<br><span class="slidenumber"></span> of <span class="slidetotal"></span><br>Copyright 2022 ComicBook.com.
