Geisterwäldchen (2005)

About this game

Michelle Schanen is continuing to play with her successful ghosts - but this time with new figures, new scenery and a completely different game principle. In Geisterwäldchen (Ghost Forest), the old ghost that the children wanted to scare is now after the children themselves. The children have hidden themselves in the mysterious woods near the old ruined castle in which the ghost lived. He circles the woods, while the children try not to get caught. Magnets in the figures play a major role. A tense chase game that's not just for kids! Ages 5 and up.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.1/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 5 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
