You may know this game by many different title names: Ghost Party, Midnight Party, Escape from the Hidden Castle, or HUGO.
And for a good reason: the game designed by Wolfgang Kramer was first released in 1989 under different names, titles and graphic art in most countries.
**Now is the time to play it on Board Game Arena!
**
Although billed as a children's game, it is enjoyable for adults as a light, fun game.
Each player controls a number of guests at a party, with the number of guests dependent on the number of players. These guests start the round in the spaces of the gallery on the game board, one guest per space; this initial placement is a large part of a player's strategy.
The Phantom (or "Hugo the ghost" in earlier versions) starts in the cellar, then climbs the stairs towards the gallery where the guests circle. The mechanism for the Phantom's movement is simple: on a player's turn, they roll a special die. If they get a number, they moves their pieces; if they roll a ghost, the Phantom moves. This means that with more players in the game, the Phantom moves a lot more frequently, and you must adjust your strategy accordingly.
Once the Phantom has reached the gallery, the guests can start ducking into the adjoining rooms to avoid him, but only one guest per room! A couple of rooms are special in that they add or subtract extra "fright points" from your score. As the Phantom catches up with the remaining guests, they are sequestered on the stair steps, then in the cellar. The first guest caught "earns" the most fright points, with those caught later in the round earning less and less.
Once all the guests have been caught, the fright points are tallied. After playing a predetermined number of rounds, the player with the fewest fright points wins!

幽灵雨果:你打算打给谁?
您可能通过许多不同的名字了解这款游戏: 灵魂派对(Ghost Party)、午夜派对(Midnight Party)、逃离隐匿城堡(Escape from the Hidden Castle) 或 幽灵雨果(HUGO) 。
并且有一个很好的理由:由 Wolfgang Kramer 设计的游戏于 1989 年在大多数国家以不同的名称、标题和图形艺术首次发布。
现在是时候在Board Game Arena上玩这款游戏了!
虽然标榜为儿童游戏,但对于成年人来说,这同样是一款轻松有趣的游戏。
每个玩家在派对上控制一定数量的客人,客人的数量取决于在场玩家的数量。
这些客人在游戏板上的画廊区域开始游戏,每个区域一位客人;这个初始位置是玩家策略的重要组成部分。
幽灵 (或早期版本中的“幻影雨果”)从地窖开始,然后爬上楼梯向客人们盘旋的画廊走去。
幽灵移动的机制很简单:轮到玩家时,他们投掷一个特殊的骰子。
如果他们掷出一个数字,就可以移动他们的棋子;如果他们掷出幽灵,幽灵就会移动。
这意味着游戏中的玩家越多,幽灵移动的频率就越高,您必须相应地调整策略。
一旦幽灵到达画廊,客人就可以开始躲进相邻的房间避开他,但每个房间只能有一个客人!
有几个房间的特别之处在于它们会为您的分数中增加或减去额外的“惊吓点数”。
当幽灵赶上剩下的客人时,他们被困在楼梯台阶上,然后被困在地窖里。
第一个被抓到的客人“赚”了最多的惊吓点数,而之后被抓到的人获得的越来越少。
一旦所有的客人都被抓住了,计算所有的惊吓点数。
玩完预定的回合数后,惊吓点数最少的玩家获胜!
