Point of View: Spooky Festival is a board game released in 2025 for 2–8 players, 60 minutes per game, and ages 12 and up. It was designed by Lukas Bleuel and its main mechanics are Deduction, Cooperative Game, and Communication Limits.
The Spooky Festival is an aging amusement park that leads a dreary existence surrounded by high-rise buildings and harbor terminals. But the small patch of land has recently sparked significant interest and that‘s where the problems begin. Four large folding maps show you a hidden object scene in a cool 3D style. But: Each folding plan shows this scene from a different angle. And: Each of you only gets to see one folding plan at a time, showing each other is taboo. As a result, no one has a complete overview. Communication is the key to joint success! To solve the puzzles, you have to talk to each other intensively - both about what you see and about what you don't see. In four chapters, you will immerse yourself in exciting and crazy adventures and constantly face new challenges.
Point of View: Spooky Festival supports 2–8 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Point of View: Spooky Festival is 60 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Point of View: Spooky Festival for ages 12 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Point of View: Spooky Festival has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game.
