Climb a haunted house one dice roll at a time and decide when your luck has run out.

Published by

Four friends and their dog dare to climb a haunted house under a full moon. You roll dice to push higher floor by floor, and each extra roll gets you closer to the top and closer to losing everything you have gathered.

Who it's for

Groups who enjoy dice tension and cheering or groaning together, with kids from about eight upward.

Not for you if…

You want decisions that build on each other: the choice is essentially the same one every turn, and a cold streak of dice can leave you empty-handed with nothing you could have done.

Vibe's take

Pure nerve. Every roll is a small dare and the table gets loud when someone reaches for one more.
