Final Girl Feature Film Box
Over the river and through the woods to grandmother's house you go. Never mind the growling, it must be your imagination, just keep skipping and singing. You stop in your tracks as a big, bad wolf leaps onto the path in front of you. Its eyes glow red and drool drips from its fangs as it stands on the path between you and your destination... Grandma will have to wait.
Not every story ends happily ever after. This isn’t the Big, Bad, Wolf you imagined as a child. It’s bigger and badder than you could imagine. Can you slow the wolf down before it becomes fast enough to move anywhere on the board in a single turn? Featuring “hunt” and “slay” modes, the killer will take different actions depending on what mode it is in, making for yet another unique challenge for you to tackle!
Storybook Woods features a unique layout with a river running through the land. You’ll have to cross rickety bridges only you and one victim can safely traverse. Fairy tale events and items may be a magical miracle or a crippling curse. Will you get lost, or make it out of the woods alive?
The Core Box, when combined with one of our Feature Film Boxes, has everything you need to play the game. Each Feature Film Box features a unique Killer and and iconic Location, and the more Feature Films you have, the more killer/location combinations you can experience!
