In this cooperative game, you enter an abandoned asylum in Gloom City in search of several hostages and their mysterious abductor. As a team, you will experience a story in three chapters.

To begin, move your figure either to another face-up location or within the location card on which your figure is already standing.

If you move your character to a location card that has not yet been revealed, reveal it and read the corresponding entry in the adventure book. There you will find a detailed description of what you see on the card. Wait until afterwards to place your figure next to the location that you want to visit or that you want to combine with an adventure card.

Unless an adventure card tells you otherwise, perform one of the following actions: 1 – Explore a location, or 2 – Combine two adventure cards, or 3 – Combine an adventure card with a location. Some locations may appear insignificant at first glance. As the story develops, however, they may become really important!

You cannot always solve every riddle or task at the moment that you come across it. Often, you will need to obtain certain objects first, and a task or mission may sometimes extend across several chapters. So be sure to use the question mark to indicate those locations! Will you be able to free the hostages and catch the perpetrators?!
