Ghostbusters: Blackout (2019)

About this game

After a major power outage struck New York, the Ghostbusters must set out to capture all the ghost escaping from their containment unit. With the whole city suffering from a blackout and an onslaught of ghost rampaging around, it’s up to the Ghostbusters to quell the chaos and get those ghosts busted! Ghostbusters: Blackout is a fully co-operative board game for 2-4 players. In it, players roll dice and allocate them to move around the city, capture ghosts, and buy upgrades for their ghost-busting tech, all while trying to keep the city from collapsing from the ensuing chaos! —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 1 to 4. It has a designed solo mode.
• Rules load. At 2.0/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
