Are You Afraid of the Dark? (1995)

About this game

Are you ready to be initiated into the Midnight Society? You and your friends will be sent on a journey through the scariest places ever imagined. If you overcome all of the obstacles, gain points in categories such as knowledge, strength, courage, and be the first one back to the campfire you too will be a member of the Midnight Society. Players must accumulate a total of six points in each of the six categories and return to the campfire to win.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.6/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
