Who it's for

Horror movie fans and dark-humor gamers who'd rather be the monster than run screaming through the cabin.

Not for you if…

Gleeful gore or slasher movie tropes aren't your idea of fun, because this game leans all the way into both.

About this game

Monster Slaughter flips the classic slasher movie on its head: you're not the terrified teenagers, you're the family of monsters hunting them through a five-room cabin. Each of you secretly ranks which victim you want dead first, then races rival monster clans to search rooms, land the kill, and cash in bone, blood and brain tokens depending on how and by whom the deed got done. Every teen has their own quirky ability that can wreck your plan mid-hunt, and other monster families are just as hungry for the same points you are. Gleefully gory and genuinely funny, it's a tactical dice-and-cards romp that turns horror movie tropes into a competitive scoring race.
