OneBookShelf October Picks 🎃

A fast, casual card game for 2–4 players. The game’s a lot of fun as you work to defend your clubhouses from rival gangs bent on pumpkin bombing your hideouts. Use ghosts to defuse the bombs, witches to boost your defenses, and vampires to play extra cards. Easy to learn, plays quickly.

These maps are a great way to spookify your regular campaign. They’re available in gridded, non gridded, and VTT versions! I love these maps because they are pretty, spooky, and well laid out. Plus the print at home instructions offer 2 different scaling options.

If you’re looking for a more mature rules lite game, with incredible layout, and random surprises, MÖRK BORG is the pick for you this Halloween. Super simple to pick up and play right away, this hardcore apocalyptic fantasy will run your characters through several different dungeon crawling scenarios but, as a warning, not all characters have a high rate in survival. Great for a one-shot scenario. If the book is too small, there are plenty of supplements from Free League and other publishers on site, too!
