Trilobyte Games Launches The 7th Guest Board Game on Kickstarter!

Trilobyte Games recently announced a new Kickstarter campaign to fund its latest venture, The 7th Guest Board Game! The classic horror-themed puzzler is back, this time in a creepily-adventurous board game the whole family will love! Tried and true to the original concept, players in The 7th Guest themed puzzler will take on the role of one of the six original guests of Stauf’s creepy mansion.

7 Beautifully crafted character figurines were created by the well known 3D modeler and digital sculptor “Romeo (Silvaticus) Salbatecu.”

The 7th Guest Board Game brings back many of the original concepts of the classic game with a variety of puzzle types including, logic puzzles, spatial problems, riddles, trivia’s, and cryptic clues, that players must harness in order to outwit Henry Stauf and their competitors.

The game board will feature the layout from the original mansion, complete with Destination Cards (Sends players to specific rooms), Puzzle Cards (which present challenging puzzles for players to solve), Mystery Spell Cards (when players land on a mystery spell space they’ll be presented with a set of direction they must follow — good or bad!), along with a six-sided die featuring the cryptic numbers from the original series, 0, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11.

Likewise, the game will feature 3 tantalizingly fun modes of play, and up to 6 players can play at a time! The richly detailed cards from the game bring out the imagination and pit players in the true feel of the classic game’s cryptic mansion.

Trilobyte has also teamed up with Panda Game Manufacturing to be the manufacturing partner of choice for their new 7th Guest Board Game!

The game starts off in the mansion’s foyer, where players take turns rolling the magic die to be sent to destination rooms where their journey to solve the mysteries and challenges of Stauf’s mansion will begin.

“Our goal is to create a tabletop board game of the highest quality that will not only be a beautiful collector’s item that fans of the game and all board game enthusiasts will be proud to have on their game shelf, but one that is also easy to learn, offers variation and customization, and actually lives up to the old cliche of being ‘fun for the whole family,’” said Rob Landeros, co-founder, CEO and creative director. “We have designed the new board game, play-tested it, and have built the foundations. All that is left is to raise the minimum funds of $51,855 necessary to make it a reality.” — Trilobyte Games LLC.
