Items 45 The creator’s order
1 Castle Panic Trade a card and decide which monsters need attention before they reach the towers. Younger players can compare colors and ranges, and the rest of the family can discuss who will be able to help next. 0 2 Outfoxed! Decide whether to reveal a suspect or look for a clue. Let younger players work the decoder and cross off candidates. The fox keeps moving as the team chooses which information it needs. 0 3 Forbidden Island Use your role to shore up part of a sinking island, gather treasures or get teammates to the helicopter. Someone new can make a visible choice about which tile to save. 0 4 Zombie Kidz Evolution Move a student and decide which door to get across before too many zombies arrive. Two students can lock a gate together. The campaign envelopes introduce extra rules as the family learns the basics. 0 5 Forbidden Sky Explore a floating platform and place electrical connections to launch the rocket. Players can split up to reveal useful tiles and then choose when to converge as the storm builds. 0 6 Forbidden Desert Dig for a flying machine's parts while sand fills the board and water runs low. Everybody’s role can contribute, so let each player pick which small problem they can help solve. 0 7 Forbidden Jungle Explore the map and rearrange it to activate an exit before spiders overwhelm it. Each family member can use a role’s ability to chip away at a different part of the escape plan. 0 8 Zombie Teenz Evolution Collect supplies and pass them to teammates as zombies advance through town. Where you stand on your turn matters because the next player can complete a delivery you could not make alone. 0 9 My First Castle Panic Match shapes and colors to get a monster before it reaches the castle. Children can choose when to use their own cards or ask another player for help. 0 10 Race to the Treasure! Place paths to reach enough keys and get to the treasure before the ogre. A child’s tile decision stays visible, which lets everyone discuss the best route together. 0
