Board Game - Paranormal Detective

"Paranormal Detective" – a game about reconstructing a story from separate facts. You will have the most fun if you use your imagination while narrating your version of what happened and add details that you could guess.

This is a board game for a cheerful and inventive company that doesn't mind racking their brains. Participants will become detectives and try to not embarrass themselves while unraveling the case. A mysterious crime has occurred, and what's most frustrating is that there are practically no clues to solve it. No evidence, no suspects – absolutely nothing! There remains only one method, albeit quite insane. You need to hold a séance and ask the deceased about the circumstances of what happened. With the help of their extrasensory abilities and unusual devices, the detectives will question the ghost and try to find out as many details about their death as possible. The ghost is interested in having at least one detective solve the case of their death: only then can they win the game. The winner will also be the detective who can correctly answer five key questions regarding the ghost's death.

How to play?
Before diving into the inexplicable process of communicating with the otherworld, necessary preparations must be made. The game board is placed in the center of the table along with the ghostly paper tablet and other components. One participant takes on the role of the ghost and receives the corresponding game elements. The other players become detectives, and each of them receives contact cards, a screen, a marker, and a tablet. The ghost player studies the story of their character's demise, indicates the victim's injuries using tokens, and reads aloud a brief description of the deceased's appearance. Well, if you're not afraid, let's begin!

On their turn, detectives ask the ghost questions, gradually uncovering various details of what happened. At the same time, they cannot ask questions that can be answered with "yes" or "no." The ghost must respond only in the way specified on the contact card played this turn. This could be through pantomime, a sound, a drawing on the questioner's back with a finger, and other options. Turn by turn, making notes on their tablets behind the screen, players construct their own versions of the ghost's demise. On their turn, after asking a question, a detective can attempt to narrate the story of the victim's death. For this, they need to answer five key questions: "Who?", "Where?", "Why?", "How?", and "Murder weapon?" and name the key words or phrases indicated on the ghost's story card. If the player gives correct answers to only some of the questions, the ghost writes on their tablet a number equal to the number of correct answers. After this, the detective will have an additional chance to get closer to the solution. However, note that each participant can attempt to solve the case no more than two times during the game.

Who won?
If one of the detectives guesses all the key words of the story, they become the winner together with the ghost. If the detectives run out of contact cards and attempts to solve the case, the winner is announced as the one who guessed the most key words.

Game features
The rules offer participants a cooperative mode, where all detectives solve the case collectively. During the game, they can discuss guesses with each other and share thoughts on the hints. However, in this case, the group will have only two attempts to solve the story.

The game offers 28 various incidents that have occurred, and additionally, you can download the free Paranormal Detectives app, where you will find even more mysterious stories!
