The Downton Abbey boardgame casts the players in the roles of the help as they complete tasks at various locations in the massive Crawley residence. Along the way, the staff may pick up letters to help or hinder their progress and encounter Carson, who will simply hinder them. The Compendium will contain rules and supplies for various games popular during the setting of the show. The boardgame will be available in April, the Compendium is forthcoming.
