About the game

What you do in a play session

Tajemnicze Domostwo is a cooperative game for 2 to 7 players that blends mystery, deduction, and a touch of the supernatural. One participant takes on the role of a lingering ghost who was unjustly executed over a century ago in the ancient manor. The rest are psychics invited by the house's owner to uncover the truth behind the legend and bring peace to the former residents. Each round represents a day or night in the house, totaling seven cycles. During the day, the psychics receive cards depicting mysterious signs sent by the ghost; at night, they exchange information under strict communication‑limits rules that forbid free conversation. This restriction forces the team to rely on hand management and image interpretation to piece together the correct narrative. If, by the end of the seven days, the players manage to reconstruct the facts – who was accused, the real crime, and the motive – everyone wins, including the ghost, who finally rests in peace. The game features modular board pieces, illustrated cards, and tokens representing clues, creating a suspenseful cooperative atmosphere. The Finale Ending mechanic adds a final deduction test, with time pressure heightening tension. While the rules are straightforward, the need to read between the lines and coordinate clues can be challenging for groups averse to limited communication. Perfect for fans of Mysterium or Dixit who want a deeper investigative story about post‑mortem justice.
