Description

Nyctophobia is a cooperative game of survival where 3 to 5 players must work together to escape a maniacal predator chasing them in a pitch-black forest. The twist is that most players are blind to the board, relying on touch to navigate to safety. The Hunted team, made up of the blind players, must find the car space on the board and survive until the police arrive, while the sighted player, the Hunter, tries to chase them down. The game includes two versions of the Hunter, the axe murderer and the mage, each offering a unique experience. The axe murderer is a straightforward, carnal threat, while the mage is a trickster who manipulates the forest and messes with the players' minds. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime of 30 to 45 minutes, Nyctophobia is a thrilling horror game that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
