Progression of Game Rules

Maze of Ghosts is a game of luck and skill.
It is a struggle between survival and death in a hostile and unstable realm.
Survivors made it safely to the realm of an Overseer, but must escape.
Ghosts and disasters will become obstacles.
Relics and fortunes will become the keys to survival.
Maze of Ghosts has undergone changes with those statements in mind.

Under new rules, Survivors are capable of making more then 1 choice per turn. They can make a total of five choices and will survive or die based on how those choices impact them. A survivor that obtains 3 ghosts or 3 disasters will be considered Deceased. A Survivor that obtains 3 relics or 3 fortunes will be considered Released.

If no combination is found like described above, there still exists slower means of being released or becoming deceased. The less risky way is still possible by making less than 3 choices per turn.

Usage of Relics and avoiding the conditions of Ghost cards will remain in the game. The ghost and relic cards remain unchanged in nature, but will become more important with the new rules.

End of Campaign

The Kickstarter project would have ended today if not for a cancellation. The cancellation was considered the best path to begin setting up the product for a few e-commerce sites. The current plan is to have Maze of Ghosts in limited supply for sale by April 25, 2015.

It is my intention to bring the game to market as a complete and unique experience. By deciding to cancel the Kickstarter campaign early on, I was able to devote more time to the product and improve upon it. This includes new artwork. More changes are undergoing consideration at this time.

For those interested in the product, I will provide updates on a weekly basis. My goal with the updates will inform viewers of new mechanics, adjustments to rules, specific card highlights, and planned events such as test sessions.

I want to thank Casual Dragon Games for backing my project and for helping me along the way with some words of wisdom.

Thank you

Survivors are lost in an unstable realm that is normally hazardous to mortals. They survived the journey to the realm, but getting back home is another struggle. The Overseer watches from the shadows as ghosts interact with the Survivors. What happens next will depend on the choices made.
