Van Ryder Games - Horror Board Game - Final Girl - Panic at Station 2891, Feature Film Box, Core Box Required, Solo Play, 20-60Mins Gameplay, Ages 14+

So I feel like I'm coming late to the party with the final girl games. I am a huge horror movie fan, I have lived the entire genre since forever - before I was even in kindergarten I was sneak watching the birds and pyscho. My sister in law mentioned these games a few times and I had never heard of them so I was interested but not assertively interested. Then we played one. For a single player board game, these do an amazing job of simulating how it would feel to be in some of these situations but without the jump scare of a video game. The creators are extremely clever with the mechanics they use to get the game to feel like the movie (or movies) they are based on. Each map has a unique characteristic and so does each killer, and they are interchangeable. She was playing the killer and map combination at one point "birds in space" with the birds from the infamous movie on the Konrad, which is based on the Nostromo from aliens with some of the functions from a few other notable space movies. Obviously, I NEEDED the one that resembles "The Thing" This did not let me down! In my first playthrough it took awhile to find a monster and I was killed within 5 rounds. My second playthrough I ended up with 2 of the 3 monster killers on the first 2 turns, then killed them both one after the other and beat the box. Every playthrough is different and amazing, and adding these to your collection only improves every one of them. I intend to have the thing in Santa's North pole next, or the thing in a suburb. These do require the core box to play - thing if this as a game and the core box as the Nintendo to play it on. Miniatures are also available for these and there's a spot in every box to store Miniatures if anyone goes with that upgrade. The box design is super clever. Always a great buy and this was no different! Also there are DOGS you can get that defend you and assist with attacks - how is this not an automatic purchase?

Lots of fun, and yes, it IS similar to "The Thing."

The best expansion of the season.

This is, in my opinion, definitely the hardest and most fun Final Girl! It has it all, fun, mechanism, and match with 3 B.A. killers! The question is who is it and how many will be there? Good luck!

Game came as it should but theres something I must warn you all! the game board is formed out of the game box so thats the main concern for me as it could be handled bad and the if the box is damaged you could not be able to play at all. Thats not my case but I wanted to point that out for anyone

The Final Girl game series is awesome! This feature film is a lot of fun to play because it has different dynamics than the other films! I highly recommend this one and all of the others too!

Love final girl board games

Fantastic addition for my favorite solo game.

Esta caja de FG es muy versatil y rejugable, puede ser muy difícil o muy fácil dependiendo del tipo y número de enemigos a los que te enfrentes. Lo que le quita algo de puntos es que cuando hay 3 enemigos puede volverse tedioso manejar sus efectos

Für mich bis jetzt der Beste Teil der Reihe (von denen die ich besitze natürlich ). Thematisch absolute Spitzenklasse. Vorallem wer von der Vorlage "John Capenter's The Thing" angetan ist kommt hier voll auf seine Kosten. (Vorsicht, Final Girl Core Box wird benötigt. Nur in Englisch verfügbar )

Una expansion muy temática y diferente a las demás. El mapa es interesante puesto que solo tiene un espacio para escapar y debes esperar a que el helicóptero llegue, además de tener espacio limitado para los pasajeros. Puede llegar a complicar mucho las partidas. Por otro lado, el asesino es muy temático y acordé a la película en la que se basa, aunque depende mucho de la suerte. Puedes tener partidas super sencillas con este villano, inclusive la mayor parte de la partida sencillamente lo puedes ignorar e ir rescatando gente o buscando objetos útiles para aniquilarlo.
