About this game

Enter a haunted world where timing, courage, and a bit of luck decide your fate! In GHOST, players compete to capture mysterious spirits by lining up in different haunted locations—but the deeper you go, the riskier it becomes. During the game, players take turns placing their pieces into rows, forming queues to hunt ghosts. The further back you stand in line, the harder it is to succeed—but also the better odrer. When all players have committed, each row is resolved using dice rolls. Success depends on the number of players in line and the risks you’ve taken. Fail, and you walk away empty-handed. Succeed, and you claim valuable ghost cards with unique abilities! Use Little Ghosts to manipulate outcomes—reroll dice, block opponents, or turn the odds in your favor. But resources are limited, and every choice matters. After 4 rounds, players score by multiplying the sets of symbols they’ve collected. The player with the highest score—and the most Ghost King rewards—wins! A tense blend of push-your-luck, timing, and player interaction, perfect for those who enjoy risk and mind games. —description from the publisher
