THE NIGHT CAGE BASE GAME IS REQUIRED TO PLAY

Can your light hold back what waits in the dark? 

Shrieking Hollow is an expansion to our atmospheric and wildly popular cooperative, horror-themed tile placement game, The Night Cage. 1-5 lost souls still wander the otherworldly labyrinth of eternal darkness, but the expansion adds a new threat and a new space to explore. Pits now connect Prisoners to the Hollow, where The Other lies in wait, a monster with the ability to smother half the board in darkness. Over the course of play, The Other will rise up out of the Hollow and attack the Prisoners, destroying any part of the maze it encounters.

If the Prisoners are brave, they can leap into a Pit and fall to the bottom of the Hollow where the dim light of their candles will hold its advance, temporarily. However, they can’t hold it back forever, and Prisoners that stay too close to The Other will be attacked when it lurches toward the flickering light it despises. 

• New sideboard to explore, more advanced monsters and new mechanics. 

• Visceral, “OMG” new monster The OTHER. 

• Includes new event-style tiles and cards, which offer strategic benefits at significant cost, stimulating more cooperative discussion amongst players.

Madison ★★★★★

The Shrieking Hollow tiles add a whole new layer of tension to our game nights, especially when the shrieker starts moving toward your light source. Setup took a few extra minutes the first time since you're mixing in the new tiles, but after that it flows fine. Just remember you need the base game

Leo N. ★★★★★

My group lost three times in a row before we finally beat the Shrieking Hollow scenario, and nobody complained once. The way the new tiles mess with your light radius makes every turn feel genuinely tense.

Ella ★★★★★

The new tiles in this expansion ramp up the tension without slowing the game down, and we finished our first run genuinely spooked. Only gripe is that setup takes a bit longer now since you're sorting the extra pieces in.
