About this game
“In Grey Hills, a friend's voice isn't always friendly.”
Your minibus is stuck in a storm. The only shelter is the old von Adelstein mansion. You thought the cold outside was the worst part. You were wrong.
Born of the Moon is a cooperative horror game with social deduction elements where 3-6 players try to survive the night. One of you is the Werewolf, whose goal is to ensure no one sees the sunrise.
KEY FEATURES
- Asymmetry & Paranoia You are not just "survivors." Everyone has a role and their own truth. The Scientist sees hidden signs and the beast's fears. The Quiet One can hide where the monster gets stuck. The Doctor saves lives, but who will save his sanity? Information is scarce—and that breeds distrust.
- Unpredictable Threat The Werewolf is a player who can pretend to be human and sabotage the group. But the real terror comes from Random Events. Every 7 minutes, the rules change:— Will a Clean Moon rise, granting a moment of respite?— Or will the Blood Moon ascend, amplifying the beast’s powers while survival chances drop to zero?
- You never know which scenario will unfold this time.
- Fear & Insanity Mechanics Darkness kills not just the body, but the mind. The higher your anxiety meter, the less you can trust your senses.— *Fright Effect:* You stop hearing your friends at the most critical moment.— *Hallucinations:* You see enemies where there are none, wasting precious ammo on empty space.
- Tactics vs. Brute Force The mansion is cramped. The Werewolf is strong but huge—he gets stuck in doorways and breaks furniture. Use the environment! The Trapper sets snares to buy seconds while the others barricade the doors.
- Living Lore Investigate the mystery of the von Adelstein family's disappearance. Read diaries, study distorted portraits, and find ritual items. Each note might tell you how to weaken the beast... or how to become one.
“We found the owner's daughter's diary. She wrote that Father started performing 'ceremonies.' It seems we have become part of them...”
Can you tell the truth from the lies when your life is on the line?
