Objective of the Game

Mysterium Kids is a cooperative board game where players work together to solve a mystery. Players take on the roles of detectives trying to find out which object is haunted, with the help of a mysterious ghost who provides clues through sounds.

Game Components

• 1 Game Board
• 12 Object Cards
• 1 Sound Drum
• Sound Marker
• 1 Hourglass

Setup

1. Place the game board in the center of the table.
2. Shuffle and place the 12 object cards face down on the board.
3. One player takes on the role of the ghost and receives the sound drum.
4. The other players are the detectives.
5. The ghost draws an object card at random, keeping it hidden from the detectives.
6. The ghost places the sound marker on the selected card, sets it aside, and gives the drum to the detectives.
7. Prepare the hourglass.

Gameplay

1. The ghost has 1 minute (timed by the hourglass) to make a sound associated with the chosen object, using sounds like "rattling," "bubbling," or "knocking."
2. While the detectives listen to the sounds, they discuss and try to guess which card the sound relates to.
3. The ghost is not allowed to speak, only to give clues through sounds.
4. When the detectives have a guess, they point to the corresponding card.

End of the Game

• If the detectives correctly guess the object, the group wins the game together.
• If they guess wrong, the ghost remains silent, and a new round begins.

Strategic Tips

• Communication: Detectives should actively communicate and share their thoughts and deductions.
• Attention: Listen carefully to the ghost's sounds and try to think creatively.
• Collaboration is key, as everyone might have different associations that can lead to solving the mystery.
