Description

A murderer will take victims in a city while trying to remain hidden from a streetwise Detective. Feel the tension increase and let the deduction work in this tiny hidden movement game packed in a single card!

Cereal Killer plays in 10-15 minutes, and takes the players to a tiny city where crime and mystery creeps in every corner. One player goes as the Killer, and his goal is to take six victims while secretly moving along the streets. The other player is a detective who will test his deduction skills to track the trace of the criminal, interrogate witnesses to get key information to arrest him before the week ends.

—description from the designer

Un asesino serial cobrará sus víctimas en la ciudad intentando permanecer oculto de un detective perspicaz. ¡Siente cómo aumenta la tensión y deja trabajar a la deducción en este juego de movimiento oculto reducido en una sola carta!

Cereal Killer se juega en 10-15 minutos y transporta a dos jugadores a una pequeña ciudad donde el crimen y el misterio se esconden en cada esquina. Un jugador es el Asesino, y su objetivo es cobrarse seis víctimas mientras recorre en secreto las calles. El otro jugador es un detective que pondrá a prueba sus habilidades de deducción para seguir el rastro del criminal, interrogando testigos para obtener pistas claves y así poder arrestarlo. ¿Podrá ponerle fin a los asesinatos antes de que sea demasiado tarde?
