About Black Christmas, from BoardGameGeek:
Based on the 1974 film Black Christmas.
Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year… to die! The sorority sisters of Pi Kappa Sigma are being harassed by disturbing phone calls from a mysterious stranger, and now he's upping the ante as he decks the halls with bloody corpses. In order to survive the season, the young ladies must help the police trace the killer's calls and find out where he's hiding before it's too late. Danger lurks around every corner as players work together to keep the killer on the line for as long as possible… while trying to stay alive!
Players choose one of seven characters from the classic horror film and cooperatively navigate their sorority house, uncovering special events and collecting items as they go. Their ultimate aim? To identify the 7-digit phone number of the killer.
Players roll 7 dice, allocating their face-up values to different actions, each of these actions having their own dice requirements in order to be executed.
Actions include “trace” (securing one digit of the 7-digit killer's phone number) requiring four-of-a-kind dice faces to be allocated, “peek” (enabling event cards to be revealed) requiring 3 dice faces of a value greater than six to be placed, “unicorn” (allowing a dice face to be changed to any other value that the player wishes for) requiring 3 consecutively numbered dice faces to be allocated and “grab” (allowing an item token to be taken from a room) requiring a matching pair of dice faces to be allocated.
Players may also trade and have unique character abilities to help them survive this ordeal.
