Category: Expansion for wallet game

A 2-3 player game of stacking skulls in the Sedlec Ossuary. With expansions for solo and 4 players.

Sedlec Ossuary, 16th Century AD.

The Black Plague and Hussite Wars have overcrowded the graveyard. Help the Bone Collector, a half-blind monk, by exhuming graves and arranging the skulls inside the crypt.

You are novice monks, competing to create the best arrangement of skulls. Dig up graves from the graveyard to reveal cards, take cards into your hand to collect skulls, and arrange the cards from your hand into a stack. Whoever better honors the deceased’s last wishes will score more points. The Bone Collector will then declare one player's stack as the most exceptional.

  • Players: 2-3 (1-4 with expansions)
  • Length: 10-15 minutes
  • Age 14+

Button Shy hand assembled games are labeled for ages 14+.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

Adding the 4-player option fixed our game night problem of someone always sitting out. The new stacking rules make the ossuary layout way more competitive than the base game, and we've had two sessions go down to the last skull.

Sophia ★★★★★

The solo mode slots right into the base game without extra fiddling, and the new skull stacking rules make even a 2-player round feel tense. I’ve played it three times already this week, which says a lot since my group rarely touches the same game twice.

Robert ★★★★★

I was honestly stunned how much the 4-player option and solo mode stretch this tiny box—the base game already ate our table for weeks, and now the monstrance tokens add a whole new layer of stacking strategy without slowing turns down. Feels like getting a second game for the price of a snack.
