Horrified: Greek Monsters

Play the Greek gods working together to find the lairs of escaped monsters and capture them.

Pandora's box is open and Greece's worst monsters are loose: Medusa, Cerberus, the Chimera, the Minotaur and more. You play avatars of the Greek gods and work together to catch them all before they overwhelm the land. First you have to find their lairs, which costs you three colored items each time before the lair token is flipped to reveal whose hideout it is. Then you hunt the monster down. It is a cooperative game, playable solo up to five players, with six monsters in total. The more monsters you put in play, the harder the challenge. Stand-alone, but it plays much like the 2019 Horrified.

Who it's for

You like co-op games with a mythological theme, and you want to play as gods against a team of famous monsters.

Not for you if…

You want a quick filler or a game with deep rules. It is simple, but it takes about an hour and needs everyone to cooperate.

Vibe's take

Tense and cooperative, with a spooky myth flavor. You keep running, collecting and trading items, while the monsters get ever closer to winning.
