Board Games You Say? There is a gore one for the fans too.




AMPUTHEATRE can accommodate 2 to 8 players in a single game (3 to 6 is best.)

As stated before, AMPUTHEATRE has no given objective; the rules only discuss the combat. The players are invited to create their own objectives for each game. Whatever the objective, it's bound to incur combat between the Slashers.

There are three ways to dispose of a Slasher in AMPUTHEATRE:

1. Diminish their Bloodcount to 0 (zero) Pints through combat.
2. Sunder them three times (arm, arm, head)
3. Impale them when they are Armless (unable to escape, they bleed out)

Dead Slashers remain on the board, where they can be further vilified.



Intriguingly enough, each Slasher is imbued with a nanotechnological immune system. Dubbed Amputech, this medical breakthrough allows such miracles such as the reabsorption of blood through pores in the skin, and even the rebonding of severed limbs in seconds. If a player has been losing a number of fights, they can send their off to a splattered blood pool and regain lost health from it. They can even graft almost any one Slasher's severed arm to their own warrior.



As the Slashers deal fiercer and fiercer damage upon each other, they become more imaginative and begin unleashing their Evil Deeds (akin to the "special moves" featured in the previously mentioned fighting games.) Some Evil Deeds are available at the start of the game, but the more fiendish ones require their prey to be weak enough. (Some Slashers are more resilient than others.)



To further feed the bloodlust of the Slashers, the AMPUTHEATRE overseers will often throw various Weapons into the battlefield for the Slashers to wield. Loose pages from a powerful Spell Book also sift into the arena, but whoever reads their forbidden text will find themselves either assisted or asunder. Finally, floor hazards and torture devices ("Traps") regularly spring from the arena floor to mutilate prey.



One single turn in AMPUTHEATRE constitutes ten seconds of real time in the arena. Each turn consists of four phases.

The first phase of the turn is the Event phase. One player decides whether a Weapon or a Spell is tossed into the arena.(Even new Slashers can join at this time- ask your friends who may be watching.)

The second phase is the Run Around And Kill Things phase. Every Slasher gets two opportunities to act in this turn. They may move horizontally, vertically, and diagonally about the arena, engage any other Slasher in combat within range of an attack, cast a Spell if they have one, absorb a Blood Pool to regain lost health, etc.

The third phase is the Free Action. All Slashers receive one free defensive move now (rise from a knockdown, heal a Blood Pool, etc.)

The fourth and final phase is the Suffering phase, which concerns those Slashers currently bleeding to death. After the Suffering phase, the turn ends, and the Event Dice are rolled again.

Dead Slashers remain on the board, where they can be further vilified.

VIDEO GAMESJason Voorhees Slashing His Way into WB Video Game ‘MultiVersus’



Just days after the announcement of the Jason Universe, which promised upcoming video games and more as part of a whole new era for the Jason Voorhees character, a new trailer for the relaunch of MultiVersus has confirmed Jason is coming to the game



WB Games and Player First Games will release MultiVersus on May 28, with the video game uniting pop culture icons from the Warner Bros. brand. That includes Stripe from Gremlins and Jason Voorhees himself, whose movie rights are under the WB/New Line umbrella.

Jason’s addition to MultiVersus is a pretty big deal, as it wasn’t all that long ago that the Friday the 13th franchise’s rights issues spelled the end of his own video game. Now that all rights holders are working together, this is only the beginning of the character’s big return.

MultiVersus is a free-to-play platform fighter with an ever-expanding cast of iconic characters and legendary universes, various online modes, in-game events, on-going content-filled seasons, and more.

MultiVersus will be available as a free download for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series , Xbox One, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, with full cross-play and cross-progression support.

As for the Jason Universe, that’s promising “activations spanning a wide range of platforms from entertainment, games, immersive experiences, merchandise and more to be announced throughout 2024.” A TV series is also in the works, but no movies at this time

The upcoming 2024 video game, based off of the original game of the same name developed by Grasshopper Manufacturer. Is set to be released on June 13th, there will be better improved graphics and the soundtrack will be slightly different due to licensing issues, however Juliet’s appearances will be left uncensored. Seeking to put an end to the flurry of confusion regarding the title’s upcoming leap to modern consoles, Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP director Yoshimi Yasuda has definitively clarified that the title will be neither a remake or remaster, but rather a technical and graphical ‘upgrade’ to the original game.

Little Nightmares 3 has been delayed from 2024 to 2025, Supermassive Games and Bandai Namco Europe have announced. In a post on X/Twitter, the development team said it needs more time to reach the level of quality it and its fans expect of the franchise, though didn't reveal anything more specific.
