Game played: Geister Geister Schatzsuchmeister ( Mattel ) BGG Id: 146312

With there being eight of us this week, we split into two tables and my group started with Geister Geister Schatzsuchmeister. This is a really good co-operative game about finding treasure in a haunted house and escaping before the building gets over-run by hauntings. Although this won the German Kids' game of the year in 2014, it is a good and quite challenging family game. Early on, the dice were being unkind to us and the ghosts were building up quickly. At one stage, we got up to five hauntings with only one treasure removed from the house, but we managed to get the hauntings back under control. We eventually managed to escape with all eight treasures and five hauntings on the board. If we'd taken one more turn, the sixth haunting would have appeared and we'd have lost. Great fun.
