Product Information

As in the video game, the killer must carry caught survivors to a hook, with every hooked survivor granting a victory point at the end of the turn. Going back to the collector’s edition, I do hope whoever created the box for this version stubs their toe, or accidentally hits their funny bone a little too hard. Some of our partners may process your data as a part of their legitimate business interest without asking for consent. After starting his career writing about music, films and video games for various places, Matt spent many years as a technology, PC and video game journalist before writing about tabletop games as the editor of Tabletop Gaming magazine.

As a Survivor, plot your moves, coordinate with your allies, and repair generators to power the exit and escape. Two to four people control survivors - seven characters from the video game are included in the base game, with 17 in the expanded Collector’s Edition - while one player takes on the role of the killer chasing them.

On a failed roll of 1 (replaced by a skull), the six-sided dice grant the killer blood points, which are used to perform more powerful abilities and perform extra actions. The game allows or two to four players to play as Survivors with an additional player as the Killer. When you make a move, you don't know where the killer is going to go, and they don't know where you're gonna go. I am probably the biggest board game nerd that I know and Dead by Daylight: The Board Game is just an amazing experience.

So yeah, so we're definitely looking at how we could capture the feel of some of those, and they might show up on a future announcement. Each has a different layout of locations for players to move between, represented by spaces on the board. A Dead by Daylight board game has been announced, ahead of a planned Kickstarter next month and release later this year - and Dicebreaker has seen it in action. Players will be able to play as familiar faces; all original survivors and killers from Dead by Daylight prior to the release of The Artist will be available as minis.The Dead by Daylight board game may see future expansions that bring the latest killers from the video game to the tabletop, but not if they make for a worse game, publisher Level 99 Games has said.
