Hey everyone! Ready to face some ghosts or prefer to scare your friends? Fast Forward: FEAR is a super dynamic and straightforward card game where the tension of ghost chasing is the star of the show. The coolest part is that you don't even need to read a rulebook before starting! Just gather your crew and discover the rules as you play, in the best 'learn by doing' style.
FEAR is part of the Fast Forward series, which uses the Fable Game system, the same one we saw in Fabled Fruit. With a pre-sorted deck of cards, in each game, you'll uncover new cards and rules, as if the game is revealing itself to you. The idea is that you play about 10 to 15 times to explore the entire system and see all the surprises it holds. After that, you can just 'reset' and start all over again, either with the same group or with a different one!
This is the first in a series of Fast Forward games, each with a completely different premise. If you enjoy hand management, a bit of push-your-luck, and love messing with opponents with a good 'take that,' FEAR might be the perfect fit for your game nights. Get ready to bluff, count cards, and, of course, have lots of fun with numbers!
