In this two-player card game, one person takes on the role of the Hero while the other takes on the role of the Witch. The Hero and the Witch must memorize the layout of the "Cursed Wood" (a 4x4 grid of cards) and then flip over the cards so no one knows what they are. From there, the Hero (using only their memory), must traverse the "Cursed Wood" by flipping over cards one at a time. If the Hero finds 5 Blood Roses, they succeed in their quest! If they find 5 Frights, the Hero fails!

Magic and mayhem add complication to the Hero's quest! The Witch can shift the cards and change the layout of the "Cursed Wood" each time the Hero finds a Fright!
