## Description

Product Description               Do you love horror movies? Are you scared? Well, there’s nothing to fear, because… YOU are the maniac! You and your friends are serial killers in this terrifying, campy card game inspired by classic scary movies.                   From the Manufacturer                $27,000 raised with 666 backers. A Bloody Brilliant Addition to Game Night! Hack your way through a slasher trilogy using various weapons and masks, as you fill up your collection with every scary movie stereotype known to man. Use machetes and butcher knives to chop through classic victims like jocks, cheerleaders, goths, and of course the guy at the gas station outside of town who "told those darn kids not to go up that hill!"  #REF! Pull out the ratty, old VHS tape and turn off lights. The ultimate card game for horror fans is a scream. Murdering has never been so much fun! Use Your Favorite Slasher Masks and Weapons Collect and discard classic weapons so you can teach those kids to come into YOUR woods!  VHS-Inspired Packaging You Are The Maniac fits in with any game shelf, but feels right at home on the movie shelf too! Kill Wisely! Victims are killed in the order they're lined up unless you have a Maniac card that can change that! Get bonuses for different victims based on the cards you play. Take Down Those Pesky Victims Victims are based on all the famous stereotypes such as the cheerleaders, athletes, prom king and queen (bonus points if you gut them together), and, of course, camp counselors! But killers beware! Some characters may escape and survive for the sequel. When the third act hits and the victims are dealt with, everyone is tasked with killing the always resourceful final girl. As long as you have a weapon and mask card in your hand, the final girl can be a trophy in your collection. At the end of the trilogy players will count up the points in their creepy trophy rooms. About the Startup Describe your product in 3 words.Hilarious. Dark. Gorey!How did you come up with the idea for this product?Mythos Labs is primarily a video game development studio. YOU are The Maniac! is our first physical card game. We printed a 50 deck preview edition to get experience proofing, shipping, and receive feedback on the game's design. We're competent and seasoned professionals but we wanted to challenge ourselves and come up with a game in a new medium that we truly loved..What makes your product special?You Are the Maniac is a unique card game that places YOU in the shoes of the horror movie villians we've all grown up with. We think its a very funny game that explores a subject matter that can seem a little offputting and dark att times. We try not to take those movies (or ourselves) too seriously and that resulted in us making You Are The Maniac!What has been the best part of your startup experience?The best part of the startup experience has been getting to introduce our game to so many people that wouldn't have seen it otherwise. We all love playing games that our friends come up with or develop, but that network ends at some point. Seeing so many people play and talk about Maniac has been a uniquely rewarding expereince for us!

### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    it's fun, well made
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2015*

This game is very similar to the game "Guillotine", it's fun, well made, fun art and theme. But I feel like the maniac cards could have more variety. The game seems to just pass by after a play or two. Also, you may want to adjust the rules a bit for your liking, like for a two player game, I made the group 13 people instead of 12 so that there is a better chance of the other player getting to the final girl at the end of a movie. Another thing is I put any survivors at the end of the group instead of the beginning of the sequel, because if it happens to be the final girl, the chances of being to kill her are very slim. Also I changed that between movies/sequels, we take what's in our hands and shuffle it into the deck and re-deal to make it interesting and different for each play.

### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    I wouldn’t recommend
  

*by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2017*

This game is a bit pricey for what you get. The rules are horribly written/confusing. The game itself is interesting but a bit too simplistic and there are a couple of things I didn’t like at all.1) You automatically kill victims on your turn, meaning there is no challenge.2) the randomness of card draws/plot twists can screw over any strategy making it a game of chance3) there is almost no interaction between players in that you can’t play cards on an opponent’s turn to fool his plan. The most you can do is rearrange the victim order or keep another player from playing a card on his turn.I’ve played it a couple of times now and wish I hadn’t spent money on it. Cool concept but bad execution.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Fun and funny homage
  

*by J***G on Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2017*

Fun and funny little game with lots of personality and appropriate slasher flick tropes. Would have liked a little more combos and/or strategy to give it more depth and replay ability but it's great filler between other bigger games for your game nights.
