The evil Count Rath is hunting down orphans in his mansion. Can you guide your young charges to safety?

What Is Endangered Orphans: House of Rath?

Endangered Orphans: House of Rath is a dice rolling and resolution survival game for 2–6 players, with a play time of 25–45 minutes. The instructions for my prototype cheekily listed the age range as “no one should be playing this game,” but mechanics-wise it’s probably 10+, and thematically, 14+. Lord Rath is killing off orphans in the game, but if you wanted to play with your younger children, it would be easy enough to instead explain that Lord Rath was sending the children off to boarding school. It’s a sequel to Certifiable Studio’s Endangered Orphans of Condyle Cove, but doesn’t require the original game to play.

Endangered Orphans: House of Rath is currently seeking funding on Kickstarter. There are multiple pledge levels for the game, starting with a $30 base pledge for the game and any stretch goals, and going up to a $120 all-in pledge that includes the original Endangered Orphans of Condyle Cove, its Last Winter expansion, a deluxe slip case for the games, as well as several additional extras.
