Let’s Play Ghost Stories! @ Anchorhead Coffee!

Many fell, putting an end to the reign of terror of Wu-Feng, Lord of the Nine Hells. The funerary urn housing his ashes was buried in the cemetery of a village in the Middle Empire. Years have elapsed, and the cursed legacy has been forgotten by the living. Hidden away in hell, Wu-Feng has forgotten nothing. His incessant search allowed him to locate the receptacle. The shadow of his former incarnation already extends to the villagers, who are unaware of the threat. Fortunately, the Fat-Si Taoist priests keep watch, guarding the border between the dead and the living. Armed with their courage, their faith, and their powers, they are dedicated to send the reincarnation of Wu-Feng back to Hell!

Ghost Stories is a cooperative game in which the players protect the village from incarnations of the lord of hell – Wu-Feng – and his legions of ghosts before they haunt a town and recover the ashes that will allow him to return to life. Each Player represents a Taoist monk working together with the others to fight off waves of ghosts.
The players, using teamwork, will have to exorcise the ghosts that appear during the course of the game. At the beginning of his turn, a player brings a ghost into play and places it on a free spot, and more than one can come in at the same time. The ghosts all have abilities of their own – some affecting the Taoists and their powers, some causing the active player to roll the curse die for a random effect, and others haunting the villager tiles and blocking that tile's special action. On his turn, a Taoist can move on a tile in order to exorcise adjacent ghosts or to benefit from the villager living on the tile, providing it is not haunted. Each tile of the village allows the players to benefit from a different bonus such as reviving Taoists or recovering resources. It will also be possible to get traps, move ghosts or un-haunt other village tiles.
Taoists must exorcise ghosts by rolling dice and getting the correct combination of colors and amounts. If your die rolls fall short, you can also use Tao tokens that match the color to augment your roll.
To win, the players must defeat an an incarnation of Wu-Feng, who arrives at the end of the game. There are also harder difficulty levels that add more incarnations of Wu-Feng, and to win, you must defeat all of them.
There are many ways to lose, if three of the village's tiles are haunted, if the draw pile is emptied while the incarnation of Wu-Feng is still in play, or if all the Taoists are dead.
New players are welcome, and the host is happy to teach if you haven't played before.

(Don't worry, we'll go over the rules on the day, too.)

A few important details:

• The event space is in the basement and there are only stairs (no elevator) if you have mobility issues keep this in mind.
• This event is scheduled to start at 1:00PM PLEASE be on time!
  Please factor traffic & parking into your commute.
• Speaking of… It's Cap Hill/First Hill/Seattle U, so parking can be a challenge. Sorry, it's a walking neighborhood! Anchorhead is only a few blocks from the First Hill Streetcar (Broadway & Pike/Pine or Broadway & Marion stops are about the same distance) and very close to the #2 and #12 bus lines, though.
• Purchasing something isn't a strict requirement, but it's nice to do since we're using the space. Please support the business if you can!
• If you need to cancel please do so as soon as you know. People on the waitlist and playing that day will appreciate it!
• I open signups for most of my events 1-3 days before pressing the "announce" button here on Meetup; if you want to know about that when it happens and have the opportunity to claim a seat before others, you can join the Seattle Board Games Discord server, where I'll post to let users there know as soon as RSVPs open as well as posting polls for future meetups!
