Hasbro Gaming Stranger Things Eggo Card Game

1. Introduction

The Hasbro Gaming Stranger Things Eggo Card Game is inspired by the original Netflix series. This game allows players to assume the roles of characters from the show, navigating challenges to escape the Upside Down. The objective is to be the first player to get rid of all your Eggo cards before the Demogorgon attacks.

3. Setup

1. Player Count: The game is designed for 2 to 6 players.
2. Choose Characters: Each player selects one of the 7 character cards (Will, Mike, Lucas, Dustin, Eleven, Hopper, or Barb).
3. Shuffle Eggo Cards: Thoroughly shuffle all 106 Eggo cards.
4. Deal Cards: Deal an equal number of Eggo cards to each player. The remaining cards form the draw pile.
5. Starting Player: Determine the starting player by any agreed-upon method (e.g., youngest player, highest roll).

4. Gameplay

The game proceeds in turns, with players playing Eggo cards to affect other players or the game state. The primary goal is to be the first to discard all your Eggo cards.

Playing Cards:

• Send to the Upside Down: Certain cards can send a player's character to the Upside Down, altering their gameplay.
• Draw Cards: Some cards force an opponent to draw additional Eggo cards.
• Reverse Play Order: The direction of play can be reversed by specific cards.
• Summon the Demogorgon: Special cards may summon the Demogorgon, introducing a threat to all players.
• Cause a Rift: Rift cards can switch all players between the Right Side Up and the Upside Down, changing their current game state.

Objective:

Players must strategically use their cards to escape from the Upside Down and eliminate all their Eggo cards. Failure to do so before the Demogorgon attacks results in being "toast" (eliminated from the game).

Winning the Game:

The last player remaining with Eggo cards, or the first player to successfully get rid of all their Eggo cards, wins the game.
