Vampire Hunter (2002)

About this game

From the rules: "The Object: Make your way into Drakus' castle, fighting the monsters as you go. Find Drakus before his escape ship arrives and defeat him once and for all!" This is a simple game targeting pre-teens and teens. The game itself MUST be played in the dark as the tower lights shift from red to blue, changing the board, dice, and tiles that may or may not reveal creatures of the night.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.3/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 9 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
