This Summer’s getting spooky with two new board games from the renowned game, toy and puzzle maker Ravensburger.
Nearly 45 years after the JAWS’ iconic shark drove millions out of the water, Ravensburger is reimagining the movie into a suspenseful board game that pits Chief Brody, Quint and Hopper against the shark.
Ravensburger Jaws features a special, double-sided game board that’s played in two acts. In Act 1, the humans must protect Amity Island while the hidden shark tries to silently devour swimmers. If the shark devours 9 swimmers or Chief Brody, Quint and Hopper successfully tag the shark with two yellow barrels, Act 1 is complete, and the board is flipped over. In Act 2, the humans try to defend the Orca boat while the shark rips the boat apart piece-by-piece. Short on time? You can play either Act as a stand-alone game.
You can get Jaws for $29.99 at your local Target or on Amazon
Horrorifed – Imagine living in a place so wretched, that it’s not plagued by one, two, or even three monsters, but seven of the most horrifying fiend. In this game, you’ll come face to face with them all as you work together to rid the town of these maniacal or misunderstood creatures… Before it’s too late.
