🎃 Nightmare Before Christmas – La sfida delle feste più magica (e spettrale) di sempre
Quando Halloween incontra il Natale, solo il caos può vincere.
Le luci di Natale brillano… ma qualcosa si muove nell’ombra.
Jack Skeletron sogna un mondo pieno di regali e risate, ma a Halloween Town l’allegria è un lusso pericoloso.
In Nightmare Before Christmas – Il Gioco da Tavolo, ogni carta che giochi cambia il destino delle feste: sarai tu a creare la celebrazione più memorabile, o a scatenare un incubo sotto l’albero?
Tra zucche sorridenti e palline colorate, il confine tra magia e follia è sottile come un filo di ragnatela.

Un duello di strategia e incanto nell’universo di Tim Burton
Nightmare Before Christmas è un gioco di carte tattico e veloce per 2–6 giocatori, ambientato nel mondo gotico e poetico del film cult di Tim Burton. Ogni partecipante interpreta uno dei personaggi iconici – Jack, Sally, Babbo Natale, Oogie Boogie, Dr. Finkelstein o il Sindaco – e si sfida per creare la festa più straordinaria, raccogliendo Holiday Tokens in 4 round ad alta tensione.
Le carte vanno piazzate con attenzione nei luoghi giusti: tempistica e sinergia tra le abilità uniche dei personaggi faranno la differenza tra un trionfo scintillante e un disastro da brividi.
Con le sue illustrazioni ufficiali, componenti curati e regole semplici ma profonde, il gioco è perfetto per famiglie, collezionisti e fan dell’universo Burtoniano.

⚙️ IL CUORE DEL GAMEPLAY – STRATEGIA, TEMPO E STILE BURTONIANO
Ogni turno è una danza macabra tra pianificazione e colpi di scena: decidi dove piazzare le carte per ottenere vantaggi, sabotare gli altri e trasformare il sogno in incubo (o viceversa).
La magia del titolo sta nel suo equilibrio: semplice da imparare, ma capace di offrire profondità tattica a ogni partita. Un gioco che incarna lo spirito del film — un mix poetico di luce, tenebra e ironia gotica.
