Physical or digital, horror-themed board games are nothing new. They’re still worth your attention if you dig them. Case in point: October Night Games by, well, October Night Games, is due out on October 15, and has turned to Kickstarter to get that last little bit of funding before release.
The premise for October Night Games is a battle of up to six players between two cults to decide the fate of the world on Halloween night. One side is attempting to summon the Great Old Ones, while the other is trying to stop them. The twist is that you won’t know who is on which side until Halloween night. In the meantime, you’ll be doing cultish things while avoiding suspicion (and villagers).
The devs have decided to post the game on Kickstarter in order to get a bit more funding, and they’re just over halfway there as of this writing. The devs are asking for €5,000 by September 16, with plenty of stretch goals to hit. And, you have plenty of backer rewards still available. You can also wishlist the game on Steam.
