Your night starts out by visiting your friend’s wealthy Victorian aged mansion. The problem arises when your host begins to speak with a strange voice and he seems to be possessed. He issues a challenge to get out of the house. The problem is only one of you will be allowed to leave and the rest will remain as playthings and food.
During your turn you will move to a random room in the house and draw a card from the escape deck. This deck contains exit cards which you need to win that have point values. You can also draw boon cards can help you boost and fortify your exit cards. You cannot draw escape cards if you are possessed.
