About the game
What you do in a play session
Have you ever wanted to live through a classic 80s horror movie, the kind with kids on bikes facing supernatural forces? In Tales of Evil, you and your friends take on the roles of members of the 'Pizza & Investigation' (PI) group. Forget about a quiet life: you will find yourselves in sinister places, crawling with Demons and mysteries that defy logic. The core of this game is pure narrative immersion. It is not just about rolling dice and moving miniatures on a board—though that happens quite a bit—it is about making decisions that truly matter. Every choice your group makes alters the course of the story, meaning the ending of your adventure could be completely different from what you expected. It is a cooperative campaign game, which means you need to be in perfect sync. If communication fails, Evil might just win. The game balances the weight of strategy with the fluidity of an interactive story. You will have to manage resources, explore dangerous areas, and use all your character's ingenuity to avoid being devoured by the darkness. The atmosphere is nostalgic, reminiscent of classics like 'Stranger Things' or 'The Goonies,' but with a touch of horror that keeps the tension high at the table. The responsibility is entirely yours: the fate of the investigators is literally in your hands. If you enjoy games that tell a living story, where the board reacts to your actions and danger lurks around every corner, Tales of Evil is the kind of experience that will have your table talking about the sessions for days. Get the pizza ready, gather your group, and try to make it out alive, because Evil doesn't take vacations and is just waiting for your next wrong move.
