Don’t Go Back There is live on Kickstarter now!

This spooky board game features a game box that unfolds into a dice tower and glow-in-the-dark dice.

Push Your Luck! The further you venture into each room, the more likely you are to get first choice of the cards there... but you’re also more likely to get stalked by vampires!

Don’t Go Back There comes from the studio that brought you Fromage and Canvas. It is a standalone expansion to the hit horror game, Don’t Go In There. You can play it on its own, or combine the components with the base game.

Head to Kickstarter and back now... if you dare! by @elfcreekgames
