Opening Banter and Reviews
Feature Review: Spooktacular
It's Halloween night, 1986, and the all-night Spooktacular Film Festival is running in full swing in the midst of a wild thunderstorm. Suddenly, lightning strikes, overloading the theater's power circuits and releasing a hundred years of cinematic monsters from the silver screen. As one of those monsters, YOU are now free to wreak havoc. Terrify and devour unsuspecting moviegoers in a race to become the most terrifying monster of all time! In Spooktacular, play as one of twenty movie monsters, each with their own way of playing the game. Easy to understand rules are the base of the game, and everything else you need to know is right on your monster board. Tons of variability and devious monster abilities to discover will keep you coming back to the theater. Spooktacular is played over a series of rounds. Players perform the turn steps on their monster in order, then pass the turn to the player to their left. Playing cards, adding guests, moving, spooking, devouring, and interacting with your monster’s unique abilities are common things you might do on a turn As soon as any player reaches 50 points OR there are no more tickets to take, this signals the end of the game. All players gain points equal to the points showing on any tickets they may have. The player with the most points wins.
