In Cthulhu: Death May Die inspired by the writings of H.P. Lovecraft you and your fellow players represent investigators in the 1920s who instead of trying to stop the coming of Elder Gods want to summon those otherworldly beings so that you can put a stop to them permanently.

Hard to know for sure.The game has multiple episodes and each of them has a similar structure of two acts those being before and after you summon whatever it is you happen to be summoning. If any character dies prior to the summoning then the game ends and you lose; once the Elder One is on the board as long as one of you is still alive you still have a chance to win.The episodes are all standalone and not contingent on being played in a certain order or with the same players.

In the 1920s Mr. MacDowell a gifted astrologer immediately detected a supernatural being upon entering his new house in Scotland. He gathered eminent mediums of his time for an extraordinary séance and they have seven hours to make contact with the ghost and investigate any clues that it can provide to unlock an old mystery.Unable to talk the amnesiac ghost communicates with the mediums through visions which are represented in the game by illustrated cards. The mediums must decipher the images to help the ghost remember how he was murdered: Who did the crime? Where did it take place? Which weapon caused the death? The more the mediums cooperate and guess well the easier it is to catch the right culprit.In Mysterium a reworking of the game system present in Tajemnicze Domostwo one player takes the role of ghost while everyone else represents a medium. To solve the crime the ghost must first recall (with the aid of the mediums) all of the suspects present on the night of the murder. A number of suspect location and murder weapon cards are placed on the table and the ghost randomly assigns one of each of these in secret to a medium.Each hour (i.e. game turn) the ghost hands one or more vision cards face up to each medium refilling their hand to seven each time they share vision cards. These vision cards present dreamlike images to the mediums with each medium first needing to deduce which suspect corresponds to the vision cards received. Once the ghost has handed cards to the final medium they start a two-minute sandtimer. Once a medium has placed their token on a suspect they may also place clairvoyancy tokens on the guesses made by other mediums to show whether they agree or disagree with those guesses.After time runs out the ghost reveals to each medium whether the guesses were correct or not. Mediums who guessed correctly move on to guess the location of the crime (and then the murder weapon) while those who didn't keep their vision cards and receive new ones next hour corresponding to the same suspect. Once a medium has correctly guessed the suspect location and weapon they move their token to the epilogue board and receive one clairvoyancy point for each hour remaining on the clock. They can still use their remaining clairvoyancy tokens to score additional points.If one or more mediums fail to identify their proper suspect location and weapon before the end of the seventh hour then the ghost has failed and dissipates leaving the mystery unsolved. If however they have all succeeded then the ghost has recovered enough of its memory to identify the culprit.Mediums then group their suspect location and weapon cards on the table and place a number by each group. The ghost then selects one group places the matching culprit number face down on the epilogue board picks three vision cards — one for the suspect one for the location and one for the weapon — then shuffles these cards. Players who have achieved few clairvoyancy points flip over one vision card at random then secretly vote on which suspect they think is guilty; players with more points then flip over a second vision card and vote; then those with the most points see the final card and vote.If a majority of the mediums have identified the proper suspect with ties being broken by the vote of the most clairvoyant medium then the killer has been identified and the ghost can now rest peacefully. If not well perhaps you can try again...

The postcards in every local drug store read Welcome to Fabulous Farmingdale! an ad campaign that was the brainchild of Mayor Hernandez (who coincidentally employed his wife's public relations firm to market their community). But right now things are far from fabulous in Farmingdale and for once everyone isn't blaming the Mayor. Some kind of virus or poison is turning ordinary people into vicious zombie-like killers. It is not clear how the disease spreads (though it seems that physical contact is certainly one way) but it is obvious what the illness does to its victims.These undead nicknamed Zeds from the local newscasts as the acronym for Zombie Epidemic Disease are now converging on your corner of the world around Farmingdale. As best you can tell you have been left to your own devices to stop them while the National Guard organizes a relief column but that could take days perhaps weeks for them to fight their way to you and until then what can you do?With little choice between survival and a gruesome (un)death you realize that you must coordinate the defense of the town of Farmingdale and its surrounding villages. You must lead the good citizens and emerging heroes of these communities to halt the Zeds' advances by (re)killing them attempt to coordinate the discovery of a cure to this vile scourge and preserve as much of the area and as many of its inhabitants as possible.

Betrayal Legacy marries the concept of Betrayal at House on the Hill — exploring a haunted mansion — with the permanency and multi-game storytelling exhibited by Daviau's Risk Legacy and other legacy games that followed. Betrayal Legacy consists of a prologue and a thirteen-chapter story that takes place over decades. Players represent families with specific members of a family participating in one story then perhaps an older version of those characters (assuming they lived) or their descendants showing up in later stories.Why would people keep exploring a haunted mansion for decade after decade especially when horrible things happen there? Curiosity I suppose or perhaps an ignorant boldness that comes from the belief that we know better than those who have come before. Look at all that we've learned marvel at the tools we have at hand! Surely we'll all exit safely this time...As with other Betrayal titles the game is narratively-driven with elements that record the history of your specific games. The tools mentioned earlier for example become attached to specific families. This isn't just a bucket; it's my bucket the one my grandpappy used to feed his family's pigs when he was a boy and while you can certainly use that bucket I know how to wield it best from the time he spent teaching me how to slop. Yes it's an heirloom bucket and when kept in the family I get a bonus for using it.

Description from the publisher:Horrific monsters and spectral presences lurk in manors crypts schools monasteries and derelict buildings near Arkham Massachusetts. Some spin dark conspiracies while others wait for hapless victims to devour or drive insane. It’s up to a handful of brave investigators to explore these cursed places and uncover the truth about the living nightmares within.Designed by Corey Konieczka Mansions of Madness is a macabre game of horror insanity and mystery for two to five players. Each game takes place within a pre-designed story that provides players with a unique map and several combinations of plot threads. These threads affect the monsters that investigators may encounter the clues they need to find and which climactic story ending they will ultimately experience. One player takes on the role of the keeper controlling the monsters and other malicious powers within the story. The other players take on the roles of investigators searching for answers while struggling to survive with their minds intact.Do you dare enter the Mansions of Madness?

The year is 1913. The steamship SS Atlantica is two days out from port on its voyage across the Atlantic Ocean. Its unsuspecting passengers fully anticipated a calm journey to Boston Massachusetts with nothing out of the ordinary to look forward to. However strange nightmares plague the minds of the people aboard the ship every night; rumors circulate of dark shapes following closely behind the ship just beneath the waves; and tensions rise when a body is discovered in the ship's chapel signs of a strange ritual littered around the corpse.Lurking within the depths of the Atlantic Ocean are a swarm of vicious unspeakable horrors: the Deep Ones led by Mother Hydra and Father Dagon. For reasons unknown they have set their sights on the Atlantica and their minions taking the form of human-Deep One hybrids have infiltrated the steamship to help sink it from within. Each game of Unfathomable has one or more players assuming the role of one of these hybrids and how well they can secretly sabotage the efforts of the other players might mean the difference between a successful voyage and a sunken ship.If you're a human you need to fend off Deep Ones prevent the Atlantica from taking too much damage and carefully manage the ship's four crucial resources if you want any hope of making it to Boston all while trying to figure out which of your fellow players are friends and which are foes. Everyone shares the same resource pool but humans will try to preserve them while traitors will strive to subtly deplete them. Being able to tell when someone is purposefully draining the group's resources is harder than you think especially when you take crises into account!At the end of each player's turn that player must draw a mythos card. Each of these cards represents a crisis that the whole group must try to resolve together. Some of these crises such as Food Rationing call for a choice that could potentially put the ship's passengers or resources at risk while others such as Hull Leak call for a skill test in which failure could have disastrous consequences.During a skill test each player contributes skill cards from their hand to a face-down pile shared by the group. Once everyone has contributed (or chosen not to) the cards are shuffled then revealed. If enough of the correct skills were contributed then the group passes the test! But if the wrong skills were contributed they can actually hinder the results leading to failure. Thus skill tests are dangerous opportunities for traitors to sabotage the humans' efforts so you have to stay on your toes at all times.—description from the publisher

The walls were lined with iron shelves each metal slat overfilled with glass jars containing formaldehyde and grotesque curiosities within. Pristine brass tools and refined metals of a quality I had never before laid eyes upon were strewn across sturdy slabs of rock and wood their edges sharp with use. However my eyes were soon drawn to a sturdy writing desk its mahogany eaves inlaid with thin strips of copper the center of which contained a well-worn leather-bound book. My father's journal — passed down to me and representing years of knowledge and countless experiments. And inside that weathered tome atop the pearly parchment oxidized yellow at its frayed edges were the deliberate quill marks of a crazed genius outlining the ambitious project he could never complete in one lifetime — his masterwork.Without realizing it my hands were shaking as I clutched the book to my chest. At once I felt an ownership and anxiety for the scientific sketches scrawled so eloquently on those frayed sheets. It was at that moment that I began my obsession: I would restore this laboratory to its former brilliance and dedicate my life to completing my father's work!In My Father's Work players are competing mad scientists entrusted with a page from their father's journal and a large estate in which to perform their devious experiments. Players earn points by completing experiments aiding the town in its endeavors upgrading their macabre estates and hopefully completing their father's masterwork.But they have to balance study and active experimentation because at the end of each generation all of their experiments and resources are lost to time until their child begins again with only the Journaled Knowledge and Estate they have willed to them — and since the game is played over the course of three generations it is inevitable that the players will rouse the townsfolk to form angry mobs or spiral into insanity from the ethically dubious works they have created. The player with the most points at the end of three generations wins and becomes the most revered feared ingenious scientist the world has ever known!—description from the publisher

As zombie cards with the Horde symbol are drawn one extra zombie miniature of the same type is set aside collectively forming the Horde. They will be locked into place until an “Enter the Horde!” card is drawn spawning the Horde on the board. Any Survivor caught on their own near this roving menace would best beat a hasty retreat.With such menacing new foes the Survivors are going to have their hands full dealing with the Green Horde. Luckily they’ll have some new weapons and spells on their side to help combat the rotting masses. Things like the Lava Burst the Norse Sword and the Bone Kukri will all be helpful when hacking through a pack of the undead.

Zombicide Season 2: Prison Outbreak takes the players to an indoor environment with vicious close-ranged fights Prison Outbreak contains all the needed material for a new player to enter the Zombicide universe and lots of content almost all new for an existing Zombicide player to expand his game experience. In fact Prison Outbreak holds even more material than the core game published in 2012 (now nicknamed Season 1)!The Prison Outbreak will feature berserker zombies. They’re really tied to each other.

They’re precious assets to any Zombicide team.Missions featured in the rulebook form a campaign on their own as survivors battle to turn a zombie-filled prison into a reliable shelter. Many challenges await them but they have new tools of the trade: riot shields automatic shotguns concrete saws and many more toys. There’s even an alternate ending.

Welcome to the Northern Expanse a place where nature is still unexplored mystical and dangerous. When the humans first arrived they thought they found an unspoiled paradise filled with bountiful forests lakes swimming with fish and cold freshwater flowing from the mountains. But as their settlements expanded and the surrounding forests grew thinner nature itself pushed back. Great creatures known as Beasts emerged and with their fangs claws and mystical powers they proved an incredible threat to the humans. In order to protect the settlements humans enlisted specialised hunters tasked with tracking and killing the Beasts before too many of their kin perish.The Beast uses a deck of direction cards to move over forests swamps and caverns using guile and deceit to hide its track from the hunters. However whenever a hunter moves over a location where the Beast has previously been a trail appears. Only when a hunter searches a location or the Beast itself attacks an unsuspecting target is the Beast's actual position revealed. More so each hunter has but one chance of searching each round making it a tense and difficult decision. Hunters seldom have full information whether the trail they’re pursuing contains the Beast’s actual location or if the trail has already gone cold.Each action you perform in this game is done by playing a card from your hand (up to a maximum of two cards per turn). This means that if a player wants to search attack or move they need to have a card in their hand that lets them do that. Before each round both hunters and Beast participate in a draft for the most important cards. All action cards can be used by both Beast and hunters alike.In order to win this game you either need to cooperate every step of the way if you play as a hunter or skillfully outmaneuver your opponents if you play as Beast. On their own hunters are never stronger than the Beast. Only when hunters communicate strategize and combine their actions can they bring down the Beast before it’s too late.—description from the designer

In The Others the world stands on the brink of apocalypse as the fanatics of the Hell Club have summoned the 7 Deadly Sins to lay waste to our reality. Slowly the Others have creeped into our lives corrupting society from within. The city of Haven is the key to their invasion but it will not go down without a fight thanks to the actions of the paranormal organization known as F.A.I.T.H. (Federal Authority for the Interdiction of Transdimensional Horrors). Each session of The Others is played with one player controlling the forces of a single Sin against the other players who control a team of 7 FAITH heroes. The heroes cooperate to survive the Sin's attacks and accomplish the missions set before them while the Sin attempts to thwart the heroes in all ways (preferably by destroying them).The heroes are divided into different classes each specialized in a different aspect of the game. Leaders are good at helping the other members of the team. Bruisers are excellent melee fighters. Snipers are experts at using guns to put down monsters from a distance. And Fixers have the resourcefulness and knowledge of the occult necessary to resolve supernatural crises that spread through the city. Each hero also has their own stats and unique abilities that set them apart from all others. Knowing when to bring in the right reinforcement can be key to FAITH’s victory.Corruption is one of the main mechanics of the game. It is both a way for the Sin to consume heroes and a way for heroes to accomplish amazing feats they wouldn’t be capable of normally. Taking corruption grants heroes powerful bonuses (as long as they keep taking corruption) but when they become fully corrupted their darkest secrets may come back to haunt them and tear the team from within or their flesh might simply succumb to the sinful influences.The Sins player on the other hand has access to the different monsters of each Sin including Abominations a Controller and the terrifying Avatar of Sin! These monsters can attempt to destroy the heroes or simply hinder their progress on their missions. Each Sin provides the Sins Player with a different deck of Sins cards that can be played at different times to surprise players with different effects often tied to the strategy of each Sin. Yes because each Sin taints the game with an overarching mechanic that is always in effect. For example Pride punishes prideful heroes that venture into the streets on their own while Sloth punishes heroes who try to move quickly across the board. Heroes will need to learn to deal with the different influence of each Sin which will always stand between them and their mission.The Sins are also aided by Acolytes with each session using a different type. These lowly corrupted servants of darkness can fight and stand in the way of heroes but they also have a once per round special ability that reflects their previous lives. For example corrupted hobos take equipment from heroes corrupted nuns corrupt the city districts and corrupted doctors keep heroes from healing.There are 7 different stories that players can embark on for each session of The Others. Each of them brings different special rules different dynamics and a unique system of branching missions the heroes need to accomplish in order to be victorious. There are Terror stories which are more straightforward focusing on action and combat; Corruption stories revolve around the Corruption spreading through the city and the heroes themselves; and Redemption stories rely on saving the city and the few innocents that remain. Each story can be played on a different map setup which further makes the dynamic of each session unique.The board used in The Others is made up of several tiles each depicting a different city district and different configurations of streets. As the city of Haven still belongs to humanity and it’s the Sins that are attempting to take it over the heroes can use it to get different benefits each district offers them. For example they can go to the hospital to heal wounds to the museum to get rid of corruption to the RavenCorp tower to get new equipment or to the police station to call in an orbital strike. What districts are available on each map and their location can greatly change the dynamic of the game.As the game progresses and depending on how badly the heroes fare against storyline plot twists and developments the Apocalypse Track will advance making the Sins gradually stronger and more terrifying. Apocalypse cards tied to the type of story being played (Terror Corruption or Redemption) introduce new twists and challenges to the game even bringing in the members of the Hell Club themselves!Heroes will die. Either in noble sacrifice torn apart by claws and tentacles or consumed by the corruption welling up in their souls. The question is whether the FAITH team will manage to fulfill their final mission in time or whether the Sins will reign supreme over humanity.—description from the publisher

The Thing is a game that mixes different mechanisms to create an experience that is as faithful as possible to that of the original film. It is a hidden role game in which one player is initially the Thing and the others players are humans. The purpose of the Thing is to infect others to prevent the survivors from escaping from the base (which can happen three different ways) or to try to escape with them by behaving as a human.In addition to these elements players also have to manage Outpost 31. On the map are the same rooms as seen in the film and each of these rooms allows players to perform a different action. Human players have to feed themselves and keep the boiler and the generator on to avoid being in the cold and dark. The Thing will try to sabotage these places to make life difficult for humans...or not trying to camouflage itself among the humans and infect them when the perfect opportunity presents itself.The goal of the game designers was to bring the same personal emotions and paranoia that the protagonists of the film experienced to the gaming table.

Smash Up is back with even more wild factions in the mix!

A Study in Emerald is a game for two to five players based on the award-winning short story of the same name by Neil Gaiman. In this stylistic mash-up of Sherlock Holmes and H.P. Lovecraft the worst has already happened and the world is now ruled by the Old Ones. However a secret war is being fought to free mankind from their servitude. The game A Study in Emerald fleshes out this core idea by including historical figures from the late nineteenth century most being persons involved in the anarchist movement of the time.Deck-building forms the core of the game. You use influence cubes to bid for the right to draft cards and take control of cities. Each player has a secret identity either a Restorationist fighting against the creatures or a Loyalist attempting to defend the status quo. Which side you are on determines what you score points for. An additional twist is that the performance of other players on the same side as you can stop you from winning if they are doing particularly badly so you really want to know who is on which side. More specifically when the game ends – and this can result from multiple causes such as a marker on the War or Revolution track hitting 15 or the assassination of a Restorationist player agent – then the sides compare their scores; which side has the lowest score automatically loses then the player with the highest score on the remaining team wins the game.The game takes around ninety minutes to play and is more complex than most so more suitable for the experienced gamer.

In a dark and dreary house every sound sends a cold chill through your bones. A door opens – is someone there? You hear whispers but no one answers when you call. Your eyes and ears may deceive you but the hair on your neck tells you what you already know: There are ghosts here — and not just one for these spirits are legion.In Ghost Fightin' Treasure Hunters a.k.a. Geister Geister Schatzsuchmeister! four intrepid treasure hunters are on a quest searching for precious hidden jewels but the phantoms in this house do not give up their bounty easily. As their ghoulish numbers grow the treasure hunters must work together to acquire all eight jewels and escape the house before it becomes fully haunted or else face their own gruesome demise.Players roll dice to determine how many spaces they move this turn and whether a new ghost is added to the board. Players may move up to the number of spaces shown on the die. If they end their movement in a space with a treasure they may pick it up and place it in their backpack. If they end their movement in a space with a ghost they fight that ghost by rolling a fight die. If they roll the matching symbol they remove the ghost from the game board.If the players must add a third ghost to a room it transforms into a haunting. A haunting requires at least two people in the room to attempt a fight with it. Players win if they can get all eight treasures and their whole team out of the house; they lose if all six hauntings are on the board.

In Terror in Meeple City (formerly known as Rampage) you arrive in Meeple City as a gigantic famished scaly-skinned monster! Your goal: Dig your claws and dirty paws into the asphalt destroy buildings and devour innocent meeples – in short: sow terror while having fun. The monster who has caused the most damage after the carnage finally ends wins the game.The buildings in Meeple City are comprised of floor tiles and meeples with the meeples serving as pillars that support the floors. Four wooden vehicles are on the ground in the eight neighborhoods in the city. Each monster which consists of a wooden paws disc and a wooden body starts in one corner of the game board. On a turn you take two actions from four possibilities repeating an action if desired:Monsters tend to be messy when obtaining meals but if you knock meeples off the city board you might be punished for letting food go to waste costing you a tooth or letting other players take an additional action. After your two actions you can eat unprotected meeples on the ground in your neighborhood but you can eat only as many as the number of teeth you have. If you knock another monster to the ground you break off one of its teeth thereby keeping it from stealing your food! Meeples come in six colors with the colors representing different types of inhabitants: blue (journalists) green (military) yellow (blondes) grey (old people) red (heroes) and black (businessmen). For each set of six you collect in your stomach you score 10 points at game's end. You score points for collecting floors and teeth too and you can also score for achieving the goal on your character card.In addition to the character card each player has a power card and a superpower card unique to his monster with the former lasting the entire game and the latter being a one-shot effect that's revealed only upon use.Terror in Meeple City includes rules for monsters that evolve over the course of the game that lose points for meeples not in sets and that want to combine two game boards to allow for play with up to eight players.

With your help the Zombies will have a brain in addition to eating brains. Your game will be to overwhelm the players with clever placement and movement of the Zombies.

Game description from the publisher:LEVEL 7 [Omega Protocol] picks up right where LEVEL 7 [ESCAPE] left off.

The Overseer's role in the game is to control all of the alien denizens and challenges the players face throughout the game. The players are trying to achieve specific scenario-based objectives by exploring a map that's laid out at the start and fighting off the hordes of aliens that the Overseer sends their way.Gameplay is based around adrenaline which is the currency that the soldier players use to perform actions. They generate adrenaline to do things such as move attack and perform special actions like activating an objective space. That generation also has a negative effect for them as that adrenaline transfers to the Overseer player who then uses it to spawn aliens create new threats and hurt the soldiers' chance of success during the scenario. The more actions the Special Ops players take the more resources the Overseer player has to work with.Characters in [Omega Protocol] are represented by miniatures and each Special Ops and alien character has different attributes powers and customizable skills and equipment.

In a dark and claustrophobic deep sea mining site the uncovering of a mysterious “Sphere” is dragging everyone nearby into the endless madness. The fears deep within one’s mind are amplified and transformed into horrifying monsters from other dimensions torturing one's body and testing their sanity. Only those with extraordinary will and conviction can escape its devastating grasp. Deep Madness is a fully cooperative board game for 1-6 players with 66 amazingly detailed miniatures depicting a sci-fi horror world inspired by Lovecraft’s work and the Alien series. In the game players assume the roles of investigators venturing into the seemingly empty yet perilous deep sea mining site to find out the truth behind the lost contact event. Unimaginable horror and madness from the dark fear within is waiting.Deep Madness is based on multiple scenarios from a continuous storyline. Each scenario has its own unique board setup rules special effects and goals. From resolving fatal crises to struggling with overwhelming bosses the investigators will face various quests filled with strategical decisions and fierce combat. With each scenario achieved they are one step closer to the truth but also one step deeper into the world of madness. Each scenario of the game plays in a limited number of game rounds if the investigators fail to achieve the goals before the last round ends the game is lost and everyone is consumed. Each game round consists of 4 phases: Devour Phase Spawn Phase Activation Phase and Refresh Phase.In Devour Phase the Devour Marker progresses one step forward along the Devour Track indicating the world going deeper into madness. As the Devour Marker progressing more and more rooms (map tiles) are flipped to their madness side. These rooms will spawn monsters and provide various nasty effects to hinder the investigators or to boost the monsters.In Spawn Phase different types of monsters with unique abilities are spawned in the flipped rooms. Monsters do not show their existence in fixed locations they could be spawned right next to the investigators if they ventured carelessly.Activation Phase is the core of the game the investigators and the monsters take turns to act alternately. Monsters do not wait for all investigators to finish their turns like in other cooperative games but do act between them so careless planning would put the investigators who are later in the turn order into grave danger facing fatal attacks before they had a chance to act.In Refresh Phase some maintenances are performed and some special effects are resolved.In each investigator’s turn it is crucial that the player chooses 3 actions to take wisely. Each kind of action has its own value and every single decision could be life and death in Deep Madness. Unfortunately the correct decision is rarely obvious. Moving attacking searching exchanging items locking the doors and recovering sanity are the basic actions. Additionally each investigator also has his/her own unique and irreplaceable abilities to activate. Different combinations of investigators provide distinctive strategies and game experiences.Monster acts according to its own action pool during its turn. In Deep Madness monsters are highly characteristic not just in stats but also in abilities and behaviors. Different combinations of monsters provide unique challenges. And due to the intertwined activation mechanism even different turn orders of the monsters make each game session different. However no matter how the monsters setup is Deep Madness will be a very challenging game even death could be a strategy.In the game investigators battle the horrific monsters survive the harsh crises and above all save their own minds from the devouring of madness. They are given many chances to consume their own sanity to activate their abilities to use the effects of items to reroll the dice and etc. However they are vulnerable when the sanity is low. After an investigator with insanity tokens manages to kill a monster the monster will corrupt his/her mind by permanently flipping the insanity tokens into madness tokens. As the madness token cumulates horror haunts the investigator by resolving Madness Cards and each of them has unique negative effect and terrifying flavor text.

Escape the Dark Castle is a simple cooperative game of retro-atmospheric adventure.Players take on the roles of prisoners wrongfully incarcerated in the depths of The Dark Castle. Whether it’s the Abbot the Tailor or any of the six playable characters each prisoner is represented by a character card and a custom character die showing that prisoner’s unique endowment of Might Cunning and Wisdom – the game’s three traits.Embarking on a desperate quest to escape the players must work together using custom dice and item cards to overcome the castle’s many horrors traps and challenges - each of which is represented by a large illustrated chapter card. At the beginning of each game 15 of these chapter cards are drawn at random from a larger deck to create a unique castle every time.Gameplay involves one player revealing a new chapter card each turn in a motion like turning a page of a book. When a card is turned the next chamber or passageway into which the prisoners have stumbled is revealed. There is no turn order. Instead players decide as a group who will turn the next chapter card and there are often grisly consequences for the one that does!Once revealed the chapter card will explain the situation facing the group and what must be done to get through it. In the style of choose-your-path adventures most chapters offer the group a choice about how to proceed. Bribe the drunken guards or attack them? Charge the beast or lure it out? Steal from the kitchen stores or keep moving? When the players choose to enter (or fail to avoid) combat all players roll their unique character dice simultaneously to make an attack against the enemy. They need to collectively muster the right combination of Might Cunning and Wisdom to defeat the foe in question or risk taking damage. Blocking Resting and the use of Weapons Relics and Potions will help to keep the prisoners alive.The goal of the game is for the group to complete every chapter in the castle deck then defeat the final boss. To win they must keep every member of the team alive - if any player is killed the game ends immediately.

Tides of Madness is a sequel to Tides of Time and features gameplay similar to that design. Tides of Time is a drafting game for two players. Each game consists of three rounds in which players draft cards from their hands to build their kingdom. Each card is one of five suits and also has a scoring objective.After all cards have been drafted for the round players total their points based on the suits of cards they collected and the scoring objectives on each card then they record their score. Each round the players each select one card to leave in their kingdom as a relic of the past to help them in later rounds. After three rounds the player with the the most prosperous kingdom wins.Tides of Madness adds a new twist to the above game: madness. Some cards while powerful harm your psyche so you must keep an eye on your madness level or else risk losing the game early as your mind is lost to the power of the ancients. More specifically eight of the eighteen cards in the game feature a madness icon and while scoring you receive a madness token for each such icon in your collection of cards. Whoever has the most madness in a round either scores 4 points or discards 1 madness token — and the latter option is valuable because if you ever have nine or more madness you lose the game immediately.

Bloodborne: The Card Game is based on the Chalice Dungeons in the video game Bloodborne — the ever-changing labyrinths and tombs carved out by the Great Ones beneath the fallen city of Yharnam where horrifying creatures reside. Players compete to kill monsters and take their blood.In general Bloodborne is a game about risk management with a bit of group think inventory management/upgrades and tactical play. You start with a hand of basic weapons which you get to upgrade to improve your fighting combos and capabilities.Each turn one monster chosen at random attacks players who fight back as a team with everyone playing a card from their hand simultaneously to attempt to kill the monster. Players collect blood from the monster assuming it dies based on how much damage they dealt. Monsters can fight back with exploding dice that can potentially deal infinite damage.Players can fight as long as they want but if they die in combat they lose their progress. Players can opt out of fighting to bank their blood and save it permanently. Collected blood counts as victory points.Says designer Eric M. Lang My goal with Bloodborne was to channel the intensity and frustration of the video game into a contest between players. Lots of death.

It is 1882 and the Old Ones are already here.They arrived seven hundred years ago and have been ruling the planet ever since. The majority of people just get on with their lives accepting their monstrous rulers. However a growing band of revolutionaries wish to free mankind from their slavery. These freedom fighters call themselves the Restorationists. A secret war has already broken out between the Restorationists and the forces loyal to the Old Ones. The invention of dynamite has changed the balance of power and a lone assassin now has the capacity to destroy an Old One. In this shadow world of assassins informers police agents and anarchists nobody is quite sure who is who and which side they fight for.The game A Study in Emerald draws its central plot from the award-winning short story penned by Neil Gaiman in which the worlds of Sherlock Holmes and H.P. Lovecraft are combined to telling effect. However to create a world detailed enough for players much has been added from real history. The nineteenth century was a time of unrest with many colorful characters fighting both for and against the authorities.

That flaming column was spouting volcanically. The combustion does not lay warmth but only the clamminess of death and corruption. – The Festival H.P. Lovecraft 1923In the unimaginable darkness of Kingsport silent wanderers are called to a profane celebration. Their goal: to invoke unthinkable horrors! A dread terror that is not of this world or any other — but rather from the spaces between the stars — demands your submission. Meanwhile unwary investigators vainly attempt to halt this appalling chapter in the dark history of Arkham.As the high priest of one of these shadowy cults you must dominate the city. You will invoke cosmic creatures and unholy gods to receive their gifts but you must take care to preserve your sanity and thwart the investigators who seek to stop you. This time you are the bad guys. Why settle for the lesser evil?Kingsport Festival a game of bizarre cults set in the terrifying world of Howard Philips Lovecraft lasts 12 rounds each divided into six phases. All Cultists roll their dice and the one that rolled the lowest sum will play first and so on then (in turn order) each one may invoke an Elder God by using one or more of his dice where the sum of their values is exactly equal to the number of the Elder God or pass. Once all the dice are placed or players have passed in ascending order the Elder Gods give their gifts to the Cultists who invoked them: the Cultists may have to lose Sanity points to receive the rewards. After Cultists have taken their dice back in turn order each one may place his disk on one Building that is connected to another one he has already marked (starting from the House). To do so he must pay the Domain resources required.In turns marked with a blue marker on the Calendar a Raid takes place: first the Event card and then the Investigator card is revealed. Each Cultist calculates his Strength by adding up any modifiers he has due to Spells Buildings and other game effects (such as Events Scenarios etc.). If his strength is greater the Cultist receives rewards; if is less he suffers the penalty.The game ends after the twelfth round is played. If the Scenario has a Festival card it is revealed and its effects resolved at this time. The Cultist who has the most Cult points is the winner.

It’s close to midnight...one week before the Blue Moon Monster Mixer at Spook Manor.

Spook Juice is a powerful spirit distilled from human fear and the main ingredient in every popular monster drink. The bad news is that you’re completely out of it.

And who is the Elder?At the start of the game each player knows three things:Now the players have to figure out who the Elder of the opposing team is (if there is one) and capture him.

Raxxon is a 1-4 player cooperative card game set in the Dead of Winter universe at the start of the zombie apocalypse. Players each choose one of six different specialists assisting Raxxon with the evacuation of healthy citizens from among the sick. Citizens take the form of face-down square cards in a grid. Through game actions these can be flipped to reveal whether they are sick or healthy. There are various types of sick and healthy cards each triggering different effects when flipped or killed. Flip too many Chaotic sick and you'll add more citizens to the crowd or even end the round prematurely. Killing off the healthy can have similar negative effects.Each round begins by creating a crowd - a grid of citizens from the citizen deck. Players take turns performing one action at a time after resolving any consequences marked on their character sheet. Character actions are powerful effects (kill quarantine evacuate etc) that interact spatially with the crowd (killing a row or column evacuating one card and adjacent cards of your choice) and have stacking consequences. At the start of each turn a player must resolve all their consequences from previous turns (flip citizens add citizens infect citizens lose evacuated citizens etc) before performing another action - and adding another consequence. Some consequences require players to draw Raxxon cards. Much like Crossroads cards from Dead of Winter Raxxon cards feature stories relating to characters in play. Many have multiple parts with different outcomes depending on the choices players make. Often the choices that make the game easier also grants power to the Raxxon corporation which can lead to defeat. Consequences don't clear until that player passes for the round.Once all players have passed the citizen deck is rebuilt using remaining cards in the deck the discard new sick citizens loosely quarantined citizens and any cards still in the grid. The deck is shuffled and used to create a new crowd at the start of the next round. Players win when all healthy citizens are evacuated. Players lose if the infection deck runs out (the deck of only sick people added to the citizen deck each round) or Raxxon maxes out on power and takes over the city.Part of the Dead of Winter series.Two promos for Dead of Winter are included in the box: KD James and Meryl Wolfe.

Exhaustion cards are never good but some are worse than others.Defeating a challenge provides you a reward such as regaining health or delving deeper into the Well which is represented by discarding unseen challenge cards. Once you've made your way to the bottom of the Well you'll face Scorn himself. All Seekers share a health pool and if the pool reaches zero you're defeated. This is a game that requires teamwork and persistence as the wells of Atios are unpredictable and quite dangerous.—description from publisher

The ancient manuscripts talk about a Leviathan a huge creature lying on the silt bed of the lagoon on whose back the city has its foundations. All manuscripts agree on its eternal sleep and they all tell that the beast will wake up one day shaking the city from its muddy roots smashing the vitrified stilts on which the city stands and crashing it into the seething sea where the monster will rise. The ancients say however that there will be signs; it is written that the Venetians will feel the tremors that they would therefore save themselves from the monster who will recover his freedom by plunging into the waves a deserted city.But there were no signs. What ancients did not know is that the Leviathan is not alive. For centuries the city lived and prospered on the back of a corpse. That corpse though is now awakening – and with it the dead arise from the lagoon...In the cooperative game Carnival Zombie players lead a group of characters who are fleeing on terra firma from the terror that has emerged from the lagoon of Venice. This group of characters must make its way through hordes of rotting Infected to leave the city and players need to rush as the Leviathan upon which the foundations of Venice were built is awakening. Thus it's only a matter of time before the city sinks in the dark waters of the lagoon.Each game is divided into several nights and days. During the nights players hide in trenches behind the barricades to resist the attacks of the Infected. During the day players move through the city which is shaken by tremors. The Infected are drawn by the groans of the Leviathan in the abyss to help their master free itself from the rotting stilts that nail it to the silt bed.Players have several ways to get out of town but little time to do it – and their path is hindered by the bosses the most implacable servants of the Leviathan. If the players do make it out they can assess their skills – and set a goal for next time – by counting the points scored during the game.

That player can still control this haint but now so can Hester. If Hester comes back to life then she needs to eat the other legends to gain all her power back to win.In short Harrow County is a thematic tactical game of territory control and enemy elimination to determine the fate of Harrow County.—description from the publisher

Back from the dead and better than ever! Run Fight or Die: Reloaded is a revamped and refreshed edition of the Richard Launius game Run Fight or Die.In the game you play a hero trying to survive wave after wave of zombies coming straight for you! You play as a unique character with your own character traits including a minor major and super combo. You'll need them to fight off the zombies move closer to you every round. You run from location to location searching for weapons and survivors in a desperate attempt to stay alive. Survivors may bring new skills to help you in your desperate fight for survival or in some cases new challenges to overcome.

From Dunwich to Innsmouth from the halls of Miskatonic University to the Charles Dexter Ward at Arkham Asylum trouble is in the air. The stars are almost right and terrors from beyond space and time are beginning to break through. When Cthulhu rises we're all doomed – but whose downfall will be the most entertaining?Cthulhu Gloom takes the game play of Atlas' Gloom and puts a Lovecraftian spin on it. Each player controls a group of protagonists and your goal is to make them as miserable and insane as possible – preferably with them dying quickly while your opponents' heroes remain sane and (at a minimum) alive. In the publisher's description: While your characters Gibber With Ghouls and Learn Loathsome Lore to earn negative points you'll encourage your opponents to be Analyzed by Alienists and to Just Forget About the Fungus to pile on positive points. When one group finally falls prey to the interdimensional doom that awaits us all the player whose characters have suffered the most wins.As in Gloom the cards in Cthulhu Gloom are transparent allowing you to stack multiple modifier cards on a character card to alter its stats or undo what an opponent has done to you. While Cthulhu Gloom can be played on its own or combined with Gloom and its many expansions it does introduce two new types of cards:• Story cards can be in play from the start of the game and the first player to meet a Story card's conditions – e.g. drawing the attention of The King in Yellow or heeding The Call of Cthulhu – claims the card and gains its benefits (or drawbacks).• Transformation cards mutate a character for the remainder of the game no matter which modifiers might come its way later. What's more the character's image is replaced with something hideous and slimy. You'd expect no less really...

In 1887 a vampire wakes up and seeks to quench his thirst for blood. Brave men and women ally to destroy him – but to do so they will have to thwart the plot of Renfield his faithful servant.Nosferatu is a card game mixing tactics bluffing and team play with the vampire and Renfield facing off against the vampire hunters. At the start of the game everyone knows who Renfeld is and Renfield knows which of the hunters is actually a vampire (as he chooses how to distribute the character cards) but the vampire's identity is hidden from everyone else. The hunters must identify the vampire and kill him with the ancestral stake before he can play five bite cards; if the hunters accidentally stake one of their own then demoralized and weakened they lose the game.Each player other than Renfield starts with two cards from the library which is comprised of rumors incantations bites and night cards. Five ritual cards – silver mirror 2x blood transfusion holy water and time distortion – are placed face-up on the table. Renfield creates a clock by taking one night card for each player and shuffling it with a dawn card.The game lasts a number of rounds with the rounds continuing until one of the winning conditions is met. At the start of a round players take turns doing the following: Drawing two cards from the library discarding one card face-up placing one card face-down in an action pile then drawing a card from the clock. As soon as a player draws the dawn card or each player has played once this part of the round ends.Renfield shuffles all the cards in the action pile then reveals them. If the pile contains only incantations the player holding the stake chooses one of the rituals takes its action then turns the ritual face-down. Once all five rituals have been used the hunters win the game but their main goal is to kill the vampire. If the deck contains bite cards then Renfield applies the bites to the hunters with a hunter losing one card in his stock for each bite; a hunter can have at most two bites. Night cards in the pile are added to the clock thereby giving the vampire more time to work in future rounds while making it tougher for players to achieve rituals.If the dawn card was revealed the holder of the ancient stake can stab someone thereby ending the game with victory for one side or the other or pass the stake to another player. (If dawn didn't break then the stake passes to another player with no opportunity for stabbing.)

Once a chain is started players all get an opportunity to link additional cards onto the chain during that turn.Cards in the chain resolve in reverse order: first in last out. Instant effects fire off as cards come off the chain doing damage to your opponents or bringing characters into play to defend you and attack your opponents.The object of Nightfall is to put wounds into your opponents’ decks and end the game with the least amount of wounds in your deck. But beware: the more wounds a person has the more enraged they become and the faster their deck works meaning more cards and bigger chains will come your way!

Dark Gothic is a deck-building game set in Flying Frog's A Touch of Evil game series.Each player represents a particular monster-hunting hero in the game and that hero determines the player's starting deck and grants a special ability. The heroes work together to some degree to defeat villains and monsters as they collectively lose the game if ten cards land in the shadows during play. That said the game has only a single winner – the player who has the most investigation points at the end of the game. (Villains come in three levels of difficulty and at the start of the game you create a villain stack with one card of each difficulty level being chosen at random.)The game uses three currencies – combat (red) cunning (green) and spirit (blue) – with some cards having a silver cost that can be paid with any currency. Players can acquire cards from a row of six that are available from the main deck or from piles of cards that are always available. If you fight the Hungry Dead – an always available card that costs one of each color – you can remove a card from your deck or from the central row.Dark Secrets are a special type of card that get added to your deck through various means. The card is worth negative points at the end of the game but should you draw it during play you remove it from the game then draw a Shocking Discovery – which will affect you or all players with some kind of pernicious effect.

It takes less than a minute to learn and 20–30 minutes to play.Whenever you close your eyes you fall into the dream realm: a world of vivid hallucinations and dark monsters. You must use your wits to draw power from the dream realm and break its hold on you before the monsters can track you down and consume you!Each turn you randomly draw a number of dice from a shared bag. This represents the dreams you will encounter this turn. Return two to the bag to represent your chosen path through the dream realm and roll the remainder. After you have suffered the effects of your roll you must choose whether to rest (and clear your card of one or two dreams) or press on and try your luck on another turn – going deeper and rolling more dice every time you do so.You win by collecting 15 power symbols on your rolled dice – freeing yourself from the dream world's grasp. But if you collect too many of the wrong symbols you may find yourself twisted and turned by the monsters until you too become a dreaded Nightmare. Or something's dinner.Should you become a Nightmare your game completely changes. You can still win but only by consuming the dreams of the remaining Dreamers or sending minions after them to prevent them from becoming more powerful than you. If nobody has escaped by the end of the game the most powerful Nightmare is the victor.Without dreams you cannot win. But without control you risk becoming that which you fear most.Or maybe that was your plan all along.—description from the publisher

Evil High Priest is a worker-placement game in which the players take the part of priests of a Lovecraftian entity. All players worship the same Great Old One but they are emphatically not allies. When they awaken their Great Old One he will decide which among them is the best (based on VPs) and appoint that priest and that priest only to be the High Priest who wins.The game contains cards cardboard tokens and multiple different boards - each player has an inner sanctum plus a priest board to manage his sect. In addition there is a town board representing Lovecraft country; a ritual board representing magic spells; and a cult board representing the Great Old One you seek to release.The game is performed in Action phases. the players take turns moving their cultists to activate various sites on the different boards gathering resources summoning monsters shattering Elder Signs and launching investigator raids (which attack all players). When all players run out of cultists the Action phase ends and players recover their cultists freeing up the board sites for the next Action phase. Victory is determined when the last Elder Sign blocking your Great Old One is shattered and at this point everyone totes up points. Different resources are worth different amounts but the most valuable are the Elder Signs.Driving the game are the player's need to recruit more cultists & gather more resources balanced against his need to shatter Elder Signs and protect himself against the deadly investigator raids. Unusual among worker placement games the cult board can be swapped out between games for a different experience. The Cthulhu cult board does not play the same as the Black Goat cult board and they require different tactics and planning.—description from the publisher

The gray morning has arrived and the vampires of the ancient clans must now hurry back to their tombs. For the high and mighty this is easy but the smaller weaker vampires have the strength to do this only in groups. Thus you as the vampire lord might want to play out several with low values together in order not to be surpassed. Whatever you do in Vampire Queen though be sure to rid yourself of an intrusive vampire hunter because no one wants to get stuck with that!The deck consists of cards numbered 1-13 four vampire queens that have variable value and two vampire hunters. Players start with a hand of 9-13 cards depending on the player count and the start player for a round plays from their hand either a single card multiple cards of the same value or a vampire hunter. Vampire queens on their own (or in a pair triplet or quartet) are valued at 14 but they can be played with other cards and adopt the value of those cards. For a single card or a set of cards (e.g. three 6s) each other player in turn can either pass or play the same number of cards but of a higher value (e.g. three 9s). Whoever plays the highest card(s) wins the round and leads off the next round.If the round's start player leads a vampire hunter it counts as value 0 and each other player must play exactly one (non-vampire hunter) card of whatever value they want. Whoever plays the highest card takes all played cards into their hand then leads off the next round but they cannot lead with the same vampire hunter they just won.When one or more players have emptied their hand at the end of a round the round ends. Players then score points for all cards still in hand with number cards being worth their face value queens being 14 and vampire hunter cards being 15 or 20 as indicated. Players with vampire hunters in hand keep them then shuffle all cards and deal new hands to all players with the player who holds the 20 starting. After five rounds whoever has scored the fewest points wins.

Through the use of finding weapons or alerting the nearby town folk of Crucible the campers can possibly turn the tables on the raiders. But there may also be a horrid realization that certain town folk are raiders themselves. The campers may not be able to trust anyone! It might be best to run! RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!Psycho Raiders is a tactical hex and counter game with each token representing an individual character. Characters have sheets with some individual stats related to speed strength and will to live.

Earth is in mortal danger!Invaders is a card-driven board game of warfare and horror featuring asymmetrical game-play for two players. In the game the players take on the roles of commanding forces on opposite sides of the conflict.One player leads the extraterrestrial conquerors whose goal is to transform the Earth and subjugate its inhabitants. The Invaders possess unthinkable weapons and unknowable technologies. More so within their galactic armada the aliens hold bound a terrifying array of eldritch creatures engineered specifically to sow the chaos and destruction that heralds the arrival of their masters.The other player commands the unyielding forces of a united Earth. In the shadow of a planet-wide scourge the nations of the Earth have joined forces to confront the arrival of a doom spawned on the other side of the galaxy. The Terran alliance is a desperation-forged bulwark upon which the invading forces crash and are repelled time and again. Outgunned with salvaged or untested technology and one foot in the grave the determined network of military machinery elite strike-teams warfare scientists and neighborhood militias are surprisingly capable of bloodying the Invaders' noses whenever the two forces meet.The eponymous Invaders seek to destroy the forces defending the Earth and exhaust their reserves. They do this by defeating the defending forces at key locations while also causing the Earth player to disrupt cards from their deck to their discard pile. The Invader must be cunning when deploying their creatures and war-machines or enacting their schemes as the cost to bring assets into the war often involves the discarding of other assets.Mankind must work desperately to defend critical resources and locations from the corruption and incursion of the alien threat. They do this by building formidable and deadly defenses predicting where the alien player will strike and setting traps designed to deprive the Invaders of key units and wear-down their options. Like the Invader the humans need to be clever in what they deploy and how they deploy it because their heroes may be bold but they are small in number and the Invaders are inexorable.Invaders is a science-fiction game piled thick with the trappings of war and horror. It is steeped in difficult decisions but built upon a simple elegant set of rules and because of this you will find each game telling a slightly different story each time you play. Both sides use cards to represent their units plans resources and events but as this is an asymmetrical battle game the way in which those cards are played and how they forward their owner's goals are very different. Regardless knowing when to let an asset go in favor of a better one how to exploit a weakness in your enemy's ranks and where to press an advantage or feint a trap will be key in seeing your side emerge as the victor from the morass of galactic war.One question remains: Which side are YOU on?

Fangs is a re-implementation of the social deduction game Shadow Hunters. Players are secretly dealt characters that belong to one of three teams: vampires werewolves or humans. The vampires and werewolves win by destroying the other team while the humans are generally trying to simply stay alive (though some characters may end up aligning with one of the other two teams).Since everybody starts knowing only who they are they must start working on deducing who the other players are and whether they are friend or foe. Acting quickly may help you gain an advantage by weakening the opposing team before they realize which of the players fighting is their ally but moving hastily with limited information may see you accidentally eliminate a teammate and set your side back in the conflict.On each turn players either try to gather information find new equipment or try to harm (or aid) another player. Different areas of the map influence what you may discover and who you may interact with while certain cards and abilities mean you can never be certain that things will go according to plan.

The first board game based on the original classic horror movie Halloween. In this 1 vs. many game most of the players will run around the board searching through houses for useful items and for the kids - Tommy and Lindsey. They can win the game by either causing enough damage to Michael Myers or by finding Tommy Lindsey and a set of car keys so they can escape to safety! Meanwhile the player controlling Michael Myers will stalk them - and because he is only visible when someone is looking directly at him he will be an ever-present danger throughout the game. The Myers player can win by killing enough characters or by preventing the players from escaping for long enough. (If a player's character is killed they lose anything they're carrying but will come on the board with a new character from the movie).

--- The Beast of Gévaudan is the historic name associated with a man-eating animal (or animals) that terrorised the former province of Gévaudan (consisting of the modern-day department of Lozère and part of Haute-Loire as well as the Auvergne and south Dordogne areas of France) in the Margeride Mountains of southern-central France between 1764 and 1767. The attacks which covered an area spanning 90 by 80 kilometres (56 by 50 mi) were said to have been committed by one or more beasts with formidable teeth and immense tails according to contemporary eyewitnesses. Most descriptions from the period identify the beast as a striped hyena wolf dog or wolf-dog hybrid.Victims were often killed by having their throats torn out. The Kingdom of France used a considerable amount of money and manpower to hunt the animals responsible including the resources of several nobles soldiers royal huntsmen and civilians. The number of victims differs according to the source. A 1987 study estimated there had been 610 attacks resulting in 500 deaths and 49 injuries; 98 of the victims killed were partly eaten. Other sources claim the animal or animals killed between 60 and 100 adults and children and injured more than 30. The beast was reported killed several times before the attacks finally stopped.

“All hope abandon ye who enter here. Welcome to the grimdark. Welcome to DAYNIGHTZ™”Dawn breaks on the refuge and the sunrays bring you the feared news…the day has come the day to go back to the city. When this damned thing started you joined a group of survivors that had gathered in the woods fleeing from the city. With tremendous effort you erected a makeshift refuge to fend off the foul creatures waiting for the army to come and save you. However help is not coming you know that now. And so do the traitors who quietly left the refuge last night taking most of the remaining supplies with them. Now you are forced to go back to the city: It’s the only option if you want to survive another day…This is the starting point of DAYNIGHTZ™. You get to pick a group of up to 4 survivors each with its own character sheet that shows its attributes and abilities a backpack and some equipment. Now you’re ready to start your adventure in a nightmare world where the dead rule above the living.That depends on the game mode chosen:-> In campaign mode you will have to brave narrative missions where you will have to fight and take difficult decisions that will determine your progress culminating in one of three possible endings. -> In survival mode you will roam from city to city with complete freedom to do whatever it takes to survive another day on this hell on earth.The game is divided in 3 segments: Adventure Phase Travel Phase and Refuge Phase.1) Adventure Phase: This is the most important phase of the game. In it players will roam the streets and alleys of the city exploring locales suffering encounters and generally trying to keep a low profile while striving to achieve their goals (established by the campaign mission in the campaign mode or by their own interests in the survival mode).One of the many things that set DAYNIGHTZ™ apart from other games is that is played on TWO LEVELS. What does that mean?On one hand there is the City board consisting of a labyrinth of streets alleys surprise zones and locations. On the other hand whenever the players want to explore a certain location or due to the triggering of events and conditions players will lay out tiles to represent that particular location. Each location has its own set of tiles depending on its nature. For example the Firemen Park location consists of the parking tile the locker room tile and the offices tile.2) Travel Phase: Once the Adventure Phase is finished survivors will have to trudge back to their refuge with their meager loot. In this phase survivors will have to face different situations like zombie encounters coming across abandoned structures (farms etc) and being assaulted by other survivor groups.3) Refuge Phase: This is a management phase where survivors will have to handle upgrade and defend their base. While in the refuge survivors can do a lot of stuff: recover from their wounds/infections level up stock supplies farm food upgrade the refuge’s defenses…The refuge though will be attacked regularly by either roamer’s packs or other survivor groups who can also steal and sabotage your base. That is more likely to happen if you’re away for extended periods so try to do your city supply runs as fast as possible…DAYNIGHTZ™ is based on a double profile system for both the zombies and the survivors: during the day zombies use their worse profile while during the night zombie use their better profile and survivors will use their worse profile unless they’re equipped with a light source…which are obviously very scarce and run out very fast! The day and night cycle is controlled through a timetable located on the City board.On top of that other elements can make the brave survivor’s life even more difficult:- Threat Counter: Consists of a counter that increases as a result of diverse things happening like survivors making noise environmental effects zombies amassing etc. The higher the Threat counter the higher the risk the survivors are taking by staying in the city.- Threat Encounters: Each end of turn you will verify the conditions stated in a card. If you meet the conditions you will suffer a Threat encounter. That might not happen very frequently but…beware when it does happen!- The Hunter: The Hunter is the most dangerous zombie in the game. Luckily it only appears at night; unfortunately when it appears it will attack all the survivors who are out in the open (in streets and alleys). So keep this in mind: you don’t want to be wandering around in the open at night!- Survivor’s health and stress: DAYNIGHTZ™ is a very realistic game. Thus the more wounded your survivor is the more difficult it will be for him/her to accomplish actions (in combat or out of it). Also your survivor will be able to do less actions the more wounded he/she is. Stress is also key as your survivor will be affected by events depending on their stress level which can also impact on their attribute checks.- Infection: Survivors can get infected when wounded by a zombies while searching corpses or by other special effects. Once infected the disease will deteriorate the survivor and if not treated will end up killing him/her. Of course the infection will be more easily neutered in its early stages; the more you wait the harder it will be to remove it. While infected your survivor will periodically succumb to its effects which can make them bleed make them slower etc.To help them deal with the situations that they will find themselves in the survivors can use a lot of items that they will find in their city wanderings. However all said items will either need consumables in order to function or will wear away with use…The players will also encounter other survivors and animals during their travels which depending on the decisions previously taken and the success in the encounters can join their group as allies. Allies can give a series of bonuses to the survivors but will not remain with them forever: allies have their own loyalty system which depends on the actions taken by the players. The way you treat them will determine how they treat you!All the points above plus others that you will discover during gameplay set DAYNIGHTZ™ apart from other zombie-themed games. We have worked really hard to achieve an immersive experience exploring the dark themes of the zombie apocalypse and we welcome you.PS: If you want to keep with all the info about the game you can follow us in:

As the many planes of existence turn and churn occasionally worlds come into alignment. For brief moments in the multiverse's timescale these Conjunctions allow objects to slip from one world to another sometimes unnoticed sometimes causing chaos.One such Conjunction occurred between Earth and Neemoss during the Dark Ages. Two dimensions could not be more different. Physics in this alternate plane is more akin to magic and its corrupting effects create worlds of monsters and cruelty. When items from Neemoss appear on Earth they are still imbued with their magical essence which is soon discovered by healers alchemists fakirs and all manner of snake-oil peddlers. But things become decidedly worse when the Conjunction strengthens and the first Witches from Neemoss cross into our plane of existence.Help the Heroes master their newfound magical powers as they defend their lands from the malevolent Witches and the disciples they summon. Or control the Witches as they complete their rituals to ravage the Earth!Dark Rituals: Malleus Maleficarum is an asymmetric “One vs Many” miniatures board game for 2 to 5 players with an expansion for a solo mode where one player controls the Witch Master.

The scenarios can be linked into a longer campaign or played individually if your group is more casual. Story driven scenarios game mechanics detailed miniatures and lush modular boards bring the game world to life.Can you use the magic of Neemoss to defeat the invading horde? Or will you complete your Dark Rituals to summon the ultimate evil?—description from designer

Hope is fading as the dead drive out the living. There’s nowhere left to run and all that’s left is survival. There is no rescue party waiting no help from kind strangers...in the world of The Walking Dead there is no sanctuary…The Walking Dead: No Sanctuary is a cooperative board game of desperate survival set in the world of the popular AMC television series. Designed by Adam and Brady Sadler (Warhammer Quest: The Adventure Card Game) No Sanctuary puts players in the roles of iconic survivors from The Walking Dead working together against desperate odds as they navigate a variety of scenarios. Whether the survivors are scavenging for supplies fighting off waves of the dead or even standing toe-to-toe with the living the group must find a way to work together even when its members’ interests may be at odds.No Sanctuary features a unique leadership mechanic in which players take turns assuming the role of the group’s leader. Each turn the leader must choose the group’s approach by drawing two event cards and choosing one. Since players cannot discuss this decision the pressure is on the leader and the leader alone will pay the price if the group is unable to follow the approach for the turn. Make enough bad decisions and the leader may have to relinquish his role and let the next survivor take charge of the group.Each survivor in No Sanctuary comes with a unique deck of cards to represent their special actions and abilities as well as their flaws. This deck not only drives each survivor’s playstyle but it also serves their health so hand management is crucial to surviving each scenario. Equally important as staying alive group morale is an essential part of the game. Many game effects will cause morale to drop and if it reaches zero the players lose the game. Maintaining the group’s tenuous psychological stability is just as important as staying alive!With its unique gameplay and innovative leadership mechanic No Sanctuary offers players a deep and engaging way to experience their favorite episodes of The Walking Dead and even explore beyond the show’s storylines!

One player takes the role of the adversary whose goal is to prevent the other players (the investigators) from escaping through a variety of unique actions. As an investigator your only goals are to survive and escape.Investigators move around the board in a point-to-point fashion using their base movement speed. They may sprint to move more quickly but they need to keep an eye on their stamina so they don't become exhausted. Additionally investigators can pick up and use items lock and unlock doors or use their flashlights to try and find the adversary. Meanwhile the adversary is secretly moving around the board trying to stop the investigators from escaping. There are a variety of investigators to choose from each with their own special abilities. The adversary also has multiple attacks and abilities that change how you play the game.Will you fix the car and drive out or will you override the gate and try to sneak out? The investigators will need to decide if they want to stick together to watch each other's backs or split up to race towards the exit. Either way they must move quickly - the longer the game takes the more chances the adversary has to stop them!The game ends when either all of the investigators escape (meaning the investigators won) or the adversary achieves their win condition (which is different for each adversary).

Welcome to the experiential table top game that is going to redefine what it means to play a game. Nyctophobia which means fear of the dark is a cooperative game of survival in which up to four players must work together to escape a maniacal predator chasing them in a pitch-black forest. But there's a wrinkle: Would-be survivors play the game with blackout glasses. Players cannot see the board and have to rely on touch to navigate their way to safety. So are you afraid of the dark?In more detail Nyctophobia is a cooperative tactile maze game for 3 to 5 players. All but one of the players play the game completely unable to see the board. The blinded players make up the Hunted team. They are tasked with finding the car space on the board and surviving until the police arrive to rescue them. The sighted player is the Hunter who is tasked with chasing down the Hunted and reducing one of the Hunted to zero health before the police arrive.Nyctophobia includes two versions of the Hunter that you can use: the axe murderer and the mage. The axe murderer is stalking you and your friends in the forest plodding forward without care or thought chopping down the trees that separate you to get to you all the quicker; this is the most basic and carnal of all of the experiences you can encounter in Nyctophobia. The mage by contrast is a trickster. It's not enough for the mage to hunt her victims. Messing with their mind manipulating the forest around them and leaving the blind opponents more lost than when she found them is her aim. The mage can rotate the map move trees around the forest and generally confuse the players.

The game proceeds clockwise from the first player until the end of the game is triggered; this will happen when a player has completely run out of Haunt Tokens or if they occupy five Action Cards. A final scoring then happens and the player with the most Haunt Points (HP) wins.
