Description
The Stifling Dark is a one-vs-many hidden-movement horror board game with an innovative line-of-sight mechanic for 2-5 players.
One player assumes the role of the Adversary, whose goal is to prevent the other players (the investigators) from escaping. Meanwhile, the Investigators' goal is to survive by escaping or fighting back. There are a variety of Investigators and Adversaries to choose from, each with their own special abilities.
While Investigators move around the board looking for evidence of the paranormal, they must use their flashlights to reveal tokens hidden on the Adversary's mini-map while managing their stamina and flashlight charge. Meanwhile, the Adversary is secretly moving around the board, trying to stop the Investigators from escaping.
Will you try to find a way to escape and sneak out, or will you take the fight to the Adversary? The Investigators must decide whether they want to stick together to watch each other's backs or split up to race towards the exit. Either way, they must move quickly - the longer the game takes, the more chances the Adversary has to stop them!
