Watch “Escape the Living Library board game solo play through,” a gameplay video for Escape the Living Library on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Out of the Box [Board Games] on YouTube:

This week I've been playing Escape the Living Library. This is a single page PnP board game where dice are used as resource totals, movement and to determine resource availability. In game resources are: 1. Knowledge (light bulb icon), 2. Stamina (bolt icon), and 3. Defense (shield icon) The player is trying to escape the haunted library by leveraging their knowledge of each section, stamina, and on defense (using thick books!). The aim is to avoid traps set by ghosts and progress up levels of the library and escape the exit at the top of the board. In this video I provide an overview and game play through. Game provided by PnP Time for this video. PnP game link: https://pnptime.itch.io/escape-the-living-library #boardgame #soloboardgames #printandplay #playthrough

About Escape the Living Library, from BoardGameGeek:

You love reading books and enjoy spending time at your local library. But who would have guessed it could transform into a nightmare after midnight? As the darkest hours unfold, navigate the eerie halls of the haunted library, relying on your knowledge, dwindling stamina, and defense (thick books) to make it through the night! Escape the Living Library is a game that only needs a sheet to print, and 7 dice to play. The player will go through 6 floors of the haunted library (featuring 6 sections: art, history, science, literature, fiction, and horror) and try to make it alive by escaping without running out of the vitals. Use a pair of dice for roll-and-place actions, 3 dice to track your Knowledge, Stamina, and Defense, and 1 die to represent yourself as you explore the library, dodging spooky surprises! The 7th die is for the re-roll mechanism. It's a game where both strategy and luck are key, so choose your moves wisely. Otherwise, before you know it - you might end up as one of the library's ghosts! -description from the designer
