About this board game
The Snallygaster Situation: Kids on Bikes Board Game is a cooperative adventure for 2–5 players that plays in about 60 minutes. Based on the Kids on Bikes RPG, it casts you as young friends investigating a terrifying threat in the town of Lakeview.
A new kid has vanished, strange sounds fill the night, and nobody believes your warnings. One of four diabolical monsters is threatening the town—and possibly the entire world. Work together to search for clues, locate the missing kid, uncover the creature’s weakness, and end the danger before time runs out.
One player takes the role of the Lost Kid. Each turn, they choose a card that offers clues to their location, such as street names, buildings, or landmarks. However, that same card also controls how the monster and Federal agents move and attack, creating difficult choices and unexpected setbacks.
The remaining players explore Lakeview using rides such as skateboards, dirt bikes, and inline skates. They search the town, look for clues, use special item cards, and try to avoid the monster. An attack can send a friend back to the treehouse and advance the doom marker, the game’s timer.
- Face the Jersey Devil, Dover Demon, Bloody Mary, or the Snallygaster.
- Each monster brings a different difficulty level and unique gameplay elements.
- Watch out for Federal agents who can disrupt your investigation.
- Once the Lost Kid is found, they join the group for the final attempt to defeat the monster.
With its cooperative investigation, escalating danger, and supernatural mystery, The Snallygaster Situation turns a bike ride through town into a race to save Lakeview.
