Horror in the Library
A Victorian steampunk horror board game set in a mansion where nightmares have been released through a portal. Players explore a tile-based library, collect the items required to confront their assigned Horror, and race to the Portal once their components are complete. Strategy and luck determine which cards and moving tiles players find, while a token bag provides rewards and penalties. A simple attack and defense system, along with non-player characters, adds interaction for 2 to 6 players.
