Download the Prototype Deck

Meltdown Games is thrilled to present a PnP copy of Gothic Doctor absolutely free! Many of the images aren’t the final ones (see below for details) – but this deck will let you start playing right now, months before the Kickstarter launches. Click here to get it!

Take a look at the rules page for instructions on how to play. Or, just throw the cards at each other and say that the first person to get a paper cut loses.

Now, when we say “free,” here’s what we mean: you can print it, share it, email it, give it to friends, and have a great time playing – but you just can’t sell it to anyone. We’re licensing this prototype deck under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License. This bad boy right here:

A few things to know about the deck itself up front:

• Most of the images are not final. Our artist is still working hard on his end of things, so we only have a few final drawings to show you here. They include:
  • Mr. Hyde
  • Werewolves
  • Asylum Patients
  • The Bride of Dracula
  • The Mummy
  • Holy Water
  • A Good Shave
  • The Mad Scientists are by our artist, but that’s not the illustration that we’re going to go with for the final game.

If you have any feedback about the game – whether it’s something you like, something you think could be improved, or a mistake that you think we made – feel free to use this form to let us know what your thoughts. Thanks for checking out the prototype deck – and happy doctoring!
