What you do in a play session

Get ready for more scares and twists with Final Girl: Guest Stars, an expansion that supercharges the base game with a ton of exciting new content! If you're already a fan of Final Girl and enjoy the adrenaline rush of facing iconic killers in a horror setting, this expansion is for you. It brings 11 secret envelopes packed with surprises, plus Signature Action and Vehicle Action cards to boost your plays. And that's not all: there are Event and Item cards that will make the game even more unpredictable and challenging. The big highlight is the two Character Packs: Carolyn’s Revenge and Grandma’s Grudge. Each one introduces a new Final Girl with her own unique abilities, ensuring the gameplay experience stays fresh and allowing you to explore different strategies.
