Happy Halloween, MAR Family!
What Is “After Bone Town”?
To celebrate Halloween this year, MAR spotlighted a past contributor by gamifying their piece, originally published in MAR’s print issue. In this captivating board game, players take on the roles of characters living in “Bone Town.” “After Bone Town” is a board game inspired by Angie Macri’s poem “Bone Town,” first published in MAR Volume 42.1.
How to Play
- Setup: Download and print the game board, instructions, and bone pieces from this blog post. We recommend printing the game board on 11″ by 17″ paper or across two sheets of paper. Cut out the bone pieces and window card. Before gameplay, place the bone pieces and window card in any empty spaces on the game board. Only one bone piece should be placed per empty space. The window card will also be placed on an empty space alone.
- Components: Players will need 1 die, character tokens, bone pieces, window card, and game board. Players will need to gather tokens or charms to represent each character.
- Winning: The first character to collect their two required bone pieces and the window card will be the winner.
