TABLETOP GAME HAKO ONNA

Hako Onna is a horror hide-and-seek game. One player plays as "Hako Onna" (the Woman in the Box) and the others are "Visitors", who try to escape from the mansion. As Visitors, you will try to make no noise as you search the shadowy rooms of the mansion for items to protect yourself, for information, and for a way to escape from what you cannot see but know is there. But if you stumble upon Hako Onna, you are dead. Players who discover Hako Onna become a Hakobito, one of her servants, and awaken with her to move throughout the house.

During most of the Hako Onna series, human players must keep their eyes closed so they cannot see where she moves or what action she has taken. The game also features a unique optional skill element that adds to the overall tension and horror of the game. Before a visitor can take their turn, they must avoid making noise by stacking a small disc on top of the previous ones. If the tower collapses, they have made noise, and Hako Onna's turn comes immediately.

Hako Onna can win the game in two ways:
If all visitors turn into Hakobito, or
If she has made it impossible for the visitors to win.
Human players can win in one of three ways:
If they manage to kill Hako Onna after finding her only weakness,
If they find the secret exit while holding the keychain hidden inside the safe, or
If they can bring peace to Hako Onna by bringing the remains of her body to her precious doll, Mary.
