About the game
The "push your luck" dice game, where you play as ghosts doomed to haunt their home for the next 125 years... Each resident has particular fears you can exploit by rolling your dice...but don't be too reckless, or your luck might run out. Beetlejuice is waiting for a chance to ruin your plans and show off his scaring skills, so Watch Out! On your turn, you try to scare the living and exploit their fears by rolling the dice. Your aim is to collect as many points as possible for chasing away the living before the others do ... or Beetlejuice. Each living person can only be chased away by a certain combination of haunting phenomena. But don't tempt fate too much or it will take its revenge. Because if your dice show three or more Beetlejuice symbols, you call Beetlejuice out of his coffin. If this happens too often, you all lose together and Beetlejuice takes the sweet victory.
