Our take on Evil Tag
Rather than keeping the group permanently united, the game makes trust unstable: one teenager can become possessed and pass the evil to another. Its escape structure therefore replaces standard cooperation with shifting alliances inside one haunted-house scenario.
What is Evil Tag?
Four teenagers spend a night in an abandoned house as part of a student initiation rite.
After reading a spell from an ancient basement book, they release an evil presence that possesses one of them. The possessed player can pass the evil to another teenager, turning friends into potential enemies. The group must remain human, find and use a spell to return the evil to hell, and escape the building, although one person will remain behind. Multiplayer supports 2 to 4 participants, with 4 recommended. Players can hide from Evil in a locker or flee by bike while exploring dark rooms and creepy corridors.
