Darrington Press has revealed a new expansion for one of their games ahead of GenCon 2024, as Queen By Midnight: Quarter Past is on the way. The original game was such a hit at Gen Con last year that the game sold out in about 15 minutes after the booth opened. Since then, it has become a favorite of the tabletop community and a standout for Critical Role's publishing wing. Quarter Past appears to be a standalone expansion that can be played on its own or incorporated into the original, however you see fit to play it. We have more details below, as the game will be released on November 13, 2024.
