Description:
Tis the dawn of the 19th century; an age of science, superstition, and witchcraft. Howling fills the night as a full moon rises over the small, secluded village of Shadowbrook. Gruesome murders have become a daily occurrence and terror haunts the streets at night. An evil creature has taken up residence here and the countryside is engulfed by a tide of darkness. But all is not lost...not yet.A small group of heroic individuals, with the courage and strength to fight, have arrived in town. Some just passing through while others have come with a purpose; but all will be put to the test as they race to save this cursed town from falling into darkness. It will take a cunning mind and strength of spirit to determine who is friend and who is foe...to solve the mysteries and hunt the beast to its lair.
But the secrets of Shadowbrook run deep. Gossip and rumors run rampant and these few Heroes may soon discover that they are outsiders here and this town is already so rotten from within there is little left to save.
Game Overview A Touch of Evil, The Supernatural Game is a fast-paced game of fiendish creatures, dashing Heroes, and high-adventure.

User Reviews:
|  Best Played Cooperatively
This game is a very good adventure game where players assume the roles of heroes and work competitively (against other players) or cooperatively (against the game) to defeat classic supernatural villians (such as the Werewolf). The game itself features highly detailed components, a comprehensive manual, and a cd of music. The components and rules are extensive, so give yourself ample time to punch out the pieces and read the manual in advance of playing the game for the first time. The music included does a great job of setting the tense mood for the game. Playing cooperatively is a more satisfying game experience because the stakes are higher, the villians are much stronger, and working together is highly interactive. Defeating a villian cooperatively is very satisfying. One of the best aspects of the game are the six Town Elders of Shadowbrook, whom you have to investigate to deterime if they may be a valuable ally against the villian, or if they are in league with the villian. One of the drawbacks to the game is that cooperative strategy can become repetitive as there are key items that greatly improve the chances of deteating certain villians, and they are always sought after. The game plays best with at least 3 players and game time averages about 1.5 to 2 hours.
Overall this is a fun game to play that involves a moderate investment of time to set up and figure out, but delivers an exciting adventure experience that concludes in a reasonable amount of time.
