Description

The Gothic Game is a delightfully dark and quirky board game that's all about being the last one standing in a spooky haunted mansion. With simple rules that can be explained in no time, 2 to 8 players can join in on the fun, which can last anywhere from 45 to 90 minutes. As you move through the mansion, you'll acquire weapons to help you take down your opponents, but beware of the torture devices and other obstacles that can hinder your progress. And if you're not careful, you might just find yourself being chased by Dracula himself. This 1992 game, designed by Nigel Andrews and Robert Wynne-Simmons, is a roll and move game with a twist of horror and humor. It's not for the faint of heart, as you'll be trying to eliminate your fellow players and emerge victorious. But with its silly and over-the-top gameplay, it's perfect for a group of gamers who don't take themselves too seriously. With an endorsement from Terry Jones of Monty Python fame, you know you're in for a treat. So gather your friends, grab some dice, and get ready for a night of spooky fun and friendly competition. Just be prepared for things to get a little sick and twisted – in a good way, of course.
