Tokyo Horror

Tokyo Horror 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 catalogue lists Tokyo Horror 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.

Tokyo Horror belongs to these categories: Horror, Adventure, and Expansion for Base-game. Its main mechanics are Variable Player Powers and Cooperative Game. 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 Tokyo Horror as an expansion for Arkham Horror. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Arkham Horror to use it. Check that your edition of Arkham Horror is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
