Each story is a book and each page is a hex based game board, that your will explore and move your highly detailed miniatures across; finding clues, weapons and other remedies to fight your nightmare. As locations are solved, you will progress through the book, trying to keep you sanity, explore the map, move your figure and encounter new areas on each page. The story will guide you through the adventure, if you can survive it or do you give in to your nightmares?
