Spooky Stairs
Things gets quite spooky on the "Spirit Stairs". There's a race in the old castle ruin, and the most courageous have the edge. The ghost lives at the top of the stairs. Being completely quiet, a few brave children dart up the stairs- everyone wants to be first to scare the ghost with a "BOOOO! ”But the ghost knows this age-old game and tries to transform the players into ghosts - one after the other one!

Every turn players roll an enchanted die to see how fast they climb the stairs, if a player rolls a "ghost", he may place a ghost piece over another player's pawn. A magic magnetic field connects the two and the pawn disappears! Now the players must remember for the remainder of the game under which ghost their own figure is. If all players are transformed and another "ghost" rolled, two ghosts may be exchanged. Whoever can make it to the top of the stairs amidst the chaos wins.

Kids love it and adults can stand it and enjoy them having fun.
a simple kid game, fun to introduce people to gaming, could be fun as party game with some drinks.
This game seems very simple and not much of a game, but I was pleasantly surprised by it. The twist you cannot start to climb the stairs until you roll a ghost, and there are always four ghosts in play (regardless of player count), when you start switching them it's easy to lose track which is which (especially if players play a sort of [i]3-card-monte[/i] move), and the expert variant of switching just the player tokens is such a subtle change affects your game play. For a seemingly simple kids game, it's actually a great game that demands full attention from its players. Come to think of i
