Level 99 Games to Release Spooktacular Board Game

Get ready for a night of cinematic scares! Level 99 Games, the publisher known for its highly acclaimed tabletop titles like BattleCON and Millennium Blades, is set to release its new board game, Spooktacular, to retail audiences.

Originally a successful Kickstarter project, Spooktacular puts players in the role of classic B-movie monsters that have escaped the silver screen and are now wreaking havoc in an old movie theater on Halloween night, 1986.

What is Spooktacular?

Spooktacular is a strategic area control and set collection game for 1-5 players. It’s designed to be a love letter to vintage horror films, with a heavy dose of asymmetrical gameplay. Here’s a quick rundown of what makes this game so exciting:

• 20 Unique Monsters: The game features 20 different movie monsters, each with its own unique abilities, playstyle, and even difficulty level (Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced). This means a huge amount of replayability, as each game will feel completely different depending on which monster you choose to play.
• Asymmetrical Gameplay: True to Level 99 Games’ signature style, each monster plays a different game. Whether you’re a slasher, a creature from the lagoon, or a swarm of sentient goo, your path to victory is entirely your own.
• Terrify and Devour: Your goal is to become the most terrifying monster of all time. You’ll do this by spooking and devouring moviegoers (represented by meeples), clashing with other monsters, and bringing your movie to life.
• The Chase for Tickets: A core mechanic involves collecting “mystery movie tickets,” which are set collection bonuses that add points to your score at the end of the game, creating a frantic race to claim valuable resources.

With its striking artwork, flavorful mechanics, and tribute to classic horror tropes, Spooktacular is poised to become a staple for game nights, especially as the spooky season approaches.

Availability

Spooktacular is expected to be available soon at a retail price of approximately $60.00. Fans who missed the Kickstarter campaign will now have a chance to get their hands on this highly anticipated title. Keep an eye on your local game store shelves and the Level 99 Games website for official release announcements.
