PLAYED FOR YOU

Gespensterturm

SPooky CHase till midnight

Schloss Schauerstein is a spooky castle in which occasional visitors maybe hear funny noises or see something wobble. All the same, the castle is haunted, each evening at 10 p.m. the little ghost children start to haunt the castle until midnight, but then it is off to bed for them, because at midnight adult haunting time begins.

It is the job of the players to find the haunting ghost children and get them into bed in time; for this task you need a good memory and a bit of cooperation. When all ghost children are in bed before the clock in the tower strikes 12, all players have won together.

In your turn you turn up a tile and leave it open-faced. The next player does the same. When this results in two different colors, the big hand of the tower clock is moved forward for five minutes, and the tiles are turned back over. When both players have turned up ghosts of the same color the next one, too, can try to find the third ghost of this color. When he does not succeed this means again that the hand of the clock is moved forward by five minutes and all three ghosts are turned over.

But should the third player succeed to find the third ghost then all children of one ghost family have been found and are put to bed in the room of the corresponding color in the castle. And off you go, the next player begins a new chase by turning over a tile. Players may give advice on where some children could be hiding so that you can fill all rooms together before the hands of the clock point to 12.

Very well done! This is an enchanting cooperative memo version that is simply fun - and trains clock positions on the go!
