Trick or Treat Studios has announced an officially licensed “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” board game.

So not only are we getting a “Texas Chainsaw” video game, we’re also getting a board game as well! What a time to be a fan of the franchise. As mentioned before the board game is officially licensed and is being released by “Trick or Treat” studios, so you know a lot of work will have gone into this product.

The game makers state:

The semi-co-operative game “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre”: The Game is based on the 1974 movie of the same name, and the plot of the game follows that storyline. You and your friends have run out of gas on the side of the highway and need to find help. You need to search for keys and gas by using actions to flip tokens, and once those items have been found you need to get back to the van in order to escape. Leatherface will chase the players throughout the map, and if he catches a player, he takes them to the Killing Room. Once there, the player has three turns to attempt escape before Leatherface eliminates the player.

I don’t know about you but I think this sounds great and it’ll be a welcome addition to the already great recent Horror board games we’ve had over the last few years or so.
