Playthings
As bedtime approaches, a nightmare creature steals toys from a house while the children sleep. One player hides the toys in rooms on a house map as the Night Terror, while the others use sensory clues to deduce where they have gone. Players may set traps such as bells or feel beneath a mat for vibrations, or secretly peek to learn the truth. They score points for recovering their toys, while the Night Terror scores for missed guesses and for identifying who peeked.
