About the game

Movie monsters have come to life! The more you see them, the less scary they’ll be. But beware of the monster that lurks the longest as it will become the scariest and most powerful monster of all! Fright Factor is a trick-taking game featuring movie monster suits that become less scary – and take fewer tricks – the more you play them. Each round, earn points by correctly predicting how many tricks you’ll win based on the fright factor of each monster. —description from the publisher
