■ The appeal of the game

The biggest feature of this game is that the ghosts cannot answer directly with words, but can only communicate information through nine different paranormal methods, including tarot cards, Ouija boards, hangman's knots, gestures, and lip-syncing. This unique communication restriction allows for creativity and fun, creating an immersive experience for all players.

The detectives' goal is to uncover five elements of the truth: the culprit, the crime scene, the motive, the method of the crime, and the murder weapon. Players have two chances to use their deductions during the game, and must strategically use 35 interaction cards to weave together the truth from fragmented information.

[Comprehensive components]

Includes a game board, 35 interaction cards, 28 story cards, 17 tarot cards, 5 detective screens, 5 investigation sheets, 6 erasable markers, 2 ropes for hangman's knots, 5 Ouija board markers, 10 wound markers, and more.

■ Game flow

The Ghost draws one of 28 story cards to reveal the details of the case. The Detective receives an interaction card, an investigation sheet, and a screen. On the Detective's turn, they ask the Ghost a question of their choice and play an interaction card. This card determines how the Ghost responds (Tarot, Ouija board, gestures, etc.). There are two chances to guess during the game, and the Detective and Ghost who get all five elements right win.
