The Slasher

A tranquil summer camp becomes a tense fight to survive a night stalked by a hidden killer. Two players cooperate to explore locations, gather survival items, and avoid deadly encounters while the threat remains unseen. Gameplay uses trick-taking under changing constraints and limited communication; players play hands to collect sets that represent gear and progress, while deducing danger and adapting to evolving conditions. Each trick forces coordination, risk assessment, and resource management as pressure mounts and choices grow more consequential.
