About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for an adventure full of mystery and betrayal in Ghouls, Ghosts and Teenagers! Here, you and your friends embody a group of fearless teenagers, members of a mystery-hunting team, who venture into an abandoned house. The goal? To capture a monster hiding in the shadows. But, like any good teen horror movie, there's a plot twist: the monster is already among you, disguised as one of the teenagers themselves!
The 'teenagers' have the mission to uncover the monster's identity, gather clues, and ultimately capture it before it's too late. Meanwhile, the player secretly acting as the monster has a much darker plan: to eliminate the others one by one, without raising suspicion.
The game blends elements of deduction, bluffing, and cooperation (with a traitor in the mix, of course!). You'll need keen observation to identify who's acting suspiciously, and a good poker face to hide your true intentions if you're the monster. With mechanics like action queue, multi-use cards, and hidden roles with asymmetric information, each game is a fresh experience of suspense and fun. Can you unmask the creature or will you be the next victim?
