About the Game

A restless spirit haunts this house. The home's new inhabitants call on you, a group of spiritual mediums, to perform a séance to channel the entity and seek answers for the five enigmatic questions that keep it tethered to this world.

Spirit Session is a cooperative word-crafting and deduction card game for 2 to 5 players. On their turn, players will either draw a letter card into their hand or play a letter card down to the table to help craft the five words necessary to release the spirit. But be careful, sprinkled within the draw decks are 'Darkness' cards that threaten to permanently alter the words being spelled or 'Candle Flickers' cards that threaten to blow out the three lit candles on your table. Nothing is safe from the growing darkness.

Spirit Session is a limited communication game in which all players will create a different compelling story with each play. For added difficulty, the game also includes additional game play elements that increase the difficulty for seasoned mediums by adding a cooperative puzzle element to each session.

Can you channel the spirit and decipher the answers of its fate before your candles flicker out? Gather your fellow mediums and prepare for a Spirit Session.
