The Sanderson sisters are back, and now it’s your job to stop them.
Based on the cult classic 1993 Disney film, Hocus Pocus: The Game will put you and your friends head-to-head against the witches of Salem. Players must work together to stop Winifred, Mary, and Sarah from completing their potion before the sun rises. The children of Salem are at stake!
Binx The Cat will offer players a helping hand, while the Sanderson witches will cast spells against you. Players can invoke their own set of tricks straight out of the film (like Burning Rain of Death and Billy Butcherson) to help stop the witches.
The game includes a cauldron playing board, 50 Ingredient cards, a Witch board, 13 Spell cards, a Sun token, 4 trick tokens, a rulebook, and one black cat Binx meeple.
Preorders for Hocus Pocus: The Game are live on Amazon now for $19.99. The game will officially be released July 26.
