According to senior art director Ovidio Cartagena, the plane of Duskmourn itself has a tragic backstory. "This used to be a regular plane, with happiness and people in it. But a demon that was locked inside the house took over it. And his way of taking over was growing the house until there was nothing else but him and the house. And you'll feel his presence everywhere - the name of this demon is Valgavoth."
"Rooms were our biggest shot; our flashiest mechanic of the set, you might say," said senior game designer Annie Sardelis. "They are enchantments, and they ask you to unlock things." For instance, if you'd like to play Dollmaker's Shop/Porcelain Gallery, you'd first pick which side of the card you'd like to play. If that's Dollmaker's Shop, you'd tap one white and one additional mana to bring the card into play as an enchantment."
"Wherever you like, you can pay the mana value of the other side to enable [it]," Sardellis said. "So it really gives you that flexibility to strategize through the game, making each play feel more interactive and rewarding based on the decisions you make."
