Watch “Final Girl: Season 1 from Van Ryder Games (Kickstarter): Season 1 Full Content Overview,” a board game unboxing for Final Girl on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Nathan Butler on YouTube:
Nate takes a look at the Season (AKA Series) 1 content for the Final Girl board game from Van Ryder Games, including a detailed overview of all components included, along which which were stretch goals and at what amounts.
Note from Nate: This is not a traditional "unboxing video," as I find those compelling at times but often frustrating as people take out components and react without a clue what they actually are or what they do in the game itself. I tend to instead actually play the game a little to get a good feel for the components and rules, then see about creating a video like this one. I also should note that I don't go in-depth with the rules here, but I touch on the rules by component for those who are trying to glean a sense of how the game might play with such components.
Mainly playthroughs. Final Girl is covered on BoardGameVideo.com by 81 reviews, 33 how-to-play guides, 187 recorded sessions, 40 unboxings, and 28 other videos.

About Final Girl, from BoardGameGeek:
Playing on a famous horror movie trope, Final Girl is a solitaire-only game that puts the player in the shoes of a female protagonist who must kill the slasher if she wants to survive.
The Core Box, when combined with one of our Feature Film Boxes, has everything you need to play the game. Each Feature Film Box features a unique Killer and an iconic Location, and the more Feature Films you have, the more killer/location combinations you can experience!
In game terms, Final Girl shares similarities with Hostage Negotiator, but with some key differences that change it up, including a game board to track locations and character movement. You can choose from multiple characters when picking someone to play and multiple killers when picking someone to play against. Killers and locations each have their own specific terror cards that will be shuffled together to create a unique experience with various combinations of scenarios for you to play!
NOTE: The 2022 Kickstarter for Final Girl: Season 2 included a 13 card Final Girl: First Printing Correction Pack of corrected cards for the first printing of Final Girl: Series 1. The cards mostly fix typos and are not required to play the game. The cards were corrected for the second printing of Final Girl: Series 1.
