About the game
What you do in a play session
The board is the Doctor's mansion, filled with nooks and crannies to hide in. Players move around the map, collecting essential items for their macabre plan: weapons (which become more powerful if used in the right place!), 'fail' cards (to thwart your rivals' plans), and movement cards (to get you in the right place at the right time with the Doctor). The clever play is to make others spend their 'fail' cards before you risk it. The goal is to be the first to strike the fatal blow without being noticed. It's a game of bluffing, timing, and a little bit of luck (or bad luck for the Doctor!). With up to 8 players, laughter and thwarted attempts are guaranteed. Perfect for those who enjoy a mystery-themed game, but with a much lighter and more chaotic feel.
