Welcome Paranormal Investigators to Hauntsville, the most haunted town in the world! You have all come here in order to prove yourselves worthy of hosting the new ghost hunting reality show, Eerie Explorers! Each of you will be investigating paranormal activity in a haunted house at the same time and trying to film a show with the highest VP (viewer points)! Be careful because you only have so much time to investigate before the sun comes up and whichever investigator has the highest VP will then be declared the winner! Hauntsville is a "Bingo Caller" type flip and draw game, similiar to "Welcome To," where cards are flipped up and players then draw and score on their own individual sheets using the same cards. Players will use polyomino shapes to strategically fill in rooms and create satisfying combos. -description from designer
Hauntsville has 3 videos from 3 creators: 1 how-to-play guide and 2 playthroughs. They date from October 2024.
To learn the rules, start with "Hauntsville - How To Play" by David Waldman, which runs 5 min.
To see it played, watch "Hauntsville Kickstarter Preview! Catch Ghosts With Us!" by Cribbage & More, one of 2 playthroughs.
If you like it, try Bah! Humbug! and the 12 Games of Christmas and Dungeons of Numera, also by David Waldman, or Mind Space and Sand Art, which share several of its mechanics.
