What to Expect

You start with 10 six-sided dice and draw a card each turn that can be an adversary, a lasting effect, or one of three items needed to win. Losing battles costs you dice, and running out means death. The trilogy includes three games: The House of George Walter Michaels, The Tomb of the Damned Pharaoh, and The Abyss of the Lurid Cove. Best suited for solo play but supports up to six players.

Who Is This Game For?

The game targets adult players aged 18 and up who enjoy horror and dice games. It is a medium to heavier experience requiring patience and some tactical dice management. Prior experience with dice mechanics helps, as there is no fixed game length.

How It Works

Based on dice rolling, you start with ten dice and draw a card each round. Cards represent enemies to battle, ongoing effects, or items needed to win. Losing battles costs dice, and losing all dice means elimination. The goal is to collect all three items before running out of dice.
