Description
Description from the publisher:
The haunted house looks even scarier than usual in the light of the full moon. The four brave friends and their dog dare to enter the haunted house, but who dares to climb the highest in Spookies?
Caution: Dice maneuvers that are too risky may take you further away from victory, so determine your own level of risk in your mission to collect as many "Spookies" as possible while you still can!

- Dice Rolling — rolling a certain amount of dice that you get to choose beforehand to kind of go up on these scales in order to get these spookies.
- Push Your Luck — it's push your luck because you keep going until you either bust or you stop. And if you bust, you lose some of the spookies

Quotes (from this video)
- it's the best experience we've ever had gaming or one of them, you know, one of the very very very best experiences gaming.
- Absolutely genius design. Absolutely brilliant. Super fun to play. Very challenging.
- So, in this game, it's a a similar system of you're you're drafting cards, but you're drafting from this tableau, and the tableau is shrinking and things are being revealed, and you can only draft a card if it's completely revealed.
