About the game
Do you like scary movies...? The Slashers are here to carve up the competition in all manner of gruesome ways (we know you can’t help but watch). Each killer is armed with a signature weapon for maximum shock value. So put on your mask, find a creepy forest, and wait for those pesky Teens to split up and wander straight to you... one at a time (how convenient). FORGEFIRE'S ONLINE STORE The Slashers are the single faction in the Smash Up Slashers set. Destruction, power counters, recursion. Each Slasher can summon its weapon for a unique mechanic. Destroy enemy minions and boost your own. —description from the publisher

Questions and answers
Smash Up: Slashers supports 2–4 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 catalogue lists Smash Up: Slashers for ages 14 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.
Smash Up: Slashers belongs to these categories: Card Game, Fantasy, and Humor. Its main mechanics are Area Majority / Influence and Card Play Conflict Resolution. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.
The catalogue lists Smash Up: Slashers as an expansion for Smash Up. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Smash Up to use it. Check that your edition of Smash Up is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
