Village of Horror (2017)

About this game

The quiet village is no longer peaceful. Under the influence of a blood moon that appears once every hundred years, werewolves hiding amongst the villagers feel their blood flow and thirst for action. The cunning and sly werewolves do not easily reveal their hiding place, so how can the naive villagers survive? Will they opt for self-preservation — or stand up against the werewolves? As the night passes, players' survival instincts and quickness of mind are tested, and the treacherous and fickle villagers are the most unpredictable terror of this dark and eery night. Village of Horror is a werewolf-themed card game in which players choose factions in the game and help their respective factions win by playing different cards. Only the winner will live to see the sun rise!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
