Description

In Halloween, players play the role of dark lords recruiting minions across a graveyard. Whoever recruits the best army of undead will win the game.

MATERIAL

- 80 counters (headstones) in 4 colours (20 each of red, blue, yellow, green).
- 4 dark lords (red, blue, yellow, green)
- A deck of 36 mini-cards with the following structure:

-- The back of the cards shows a closed grave. There are 4 colours of graves (9 each of white, gray, black, brown).

-- For each grave colour, there are these fronts: 2 zombies (4 points each), 2 skeletons (3 points each), 2 ghosts (2 points each), 3 will-o'-the-wisp (1 point each).

GAMEPLAY OVERVIEW

Shuffle the whole deck and place the 36 cards facing down forming a 6x6 grid. This is the graveyard.

Players take turns moving their Dark Lord and claiming graves. When claiming a grave, the card is turned facing up. Players can also use their will-o'-the-wisps to inspect unclaimed graves.

The game ends when all cards have been revealed. Each player then adds up the value of his claimed cards. The highest score wins.
