Description

In Escape the Nightmare, you and your friends are trapped in a shared nightmare, and the only way out is to work together. With a hand full of nightmarish aspects, you'll need to trade with each other to collect similar cards and master the different parts of the nightmare. But be warned, each new card can bring new challenges, like restricted trading or limited communication. And to make matters worse, a monster is chasing you, requiring you to pass its card to another player every ten seconds or face the consequences. This cooperative game is easy to learn, but challenging to win, with most groups losing a few games before achieving victory. Luckily, games are quick, lasting only 1 to 15 minutes, and resetting for another try takes seconds. With six difficulty levels and variable nightmare types, you can tailor the game to your group's skill level and preferences, making Escape the Nightmare a thrilling experience for 3 to 7 players.
