Summertime fun is dying out at Camp Crystal Lake, where masked and murderous Jason Voorhees is on the hunt for camp counselor blood. And your unlucky day is looming…
The Friday the 13th franchise is headed into the world of board games for the very first time with Friday the 13th: Horror at Camp Crystal Lake, coming this summer from The Op Games!
In this anxiety-driven, press-your-luck horror game, players take on the roles of cliché camp counselors like the stereotypical Nerd, the Partier, the Nice Guy, the Final Girl, the Diva, and the Jock as they must rely on chance and strategy to survive five nights being terrorized by blood-thirsty Jason.
Coveted tools of survival are just within your reach to randomly draw from a camp bag: cast iron pans, gasoline, cleavers, flashlights and more. Collect them to make various combinations for points and use additional Fear cards for ways to escape his Attacks.
You only have strategy and supplies to keep you alive, but the odds of returning safely to the camp get slimmer with every turn! Steal supplies from your friends, take them with you to the cabin, or keep what you find and wait out the nights to be the last one standing!
Full game contents include:
- 6 Player Boards
- 1 Cabin Board
- 10 Critical Supply Cards
- 6 Backpack Cards
- 64 Fear Cards

Amazon lists a July 20th release date for the game.
We were pretty sure that no new Friday the 13th merchandise could be released at this time due to the current legal issues plaguing the franchise, so this is quite the welcome surprise!
