SETUP:
1. Remove Glow-in-the-Dark Die and
place by a light source during set-up.
This will charge the glowing function
and can be repeated if the die ever dims.
2. Unfold the Game Board and place it so
all players can access the board.
3. Remove the Hiding Place materials from
the punch boards and assemble the
Hiding Places.
4. The player that most recently took a walk
in the woods is the Seeker first. This player
will move the Lantern. All other players will
act as Shadowlings.
5. Select the number of Shadowlings.
The game can be played with as many
Shadowlings as all of the players decide,
but no less than three. Try playing a few
rounds with different Shadowlings to see
what you like best!
Note: Players do not need to choose an
individual Shadowling to play.
All Shadowing players will work together to
move all Shadowlings during the game.
6. Place Masks on each of the Shadowlings
in play.
7. The Seeker turns on the Lantern and places
it on one of the Red Stones on the edge of
the board.

8. Players place all Hiding Places on the board in the areas between
the paths. Hiding Places may not touch the path.
9. Darken the room as much as possible and ensure that the room
is dark enough to see the shadows cast on the board by the
Hiding Places.
10. The Seeker must now close his or her eyes and all other players
now choose the best
hiding places for each of
the Shadowlings. Each
Shadowling must begin the
game hidden in a separate
Hiding Place.
HOW TO PLAY:
The Seeker begins the game. On the Seeker’s turn, he or she opens his
or her eyes and rolls the die. The Seeker then moves the Lantern that
number of spaces along the path of stones on the Game Board.
Seeker Movement Rules:
• The Seeker must move the Lantern along the
path of stones shown on the Game Board. Each
stone represents one space. Even if a stone is
not a full circle, it counts as 1 space.
• Once the Seeker has rolled the die and started
to move, the Seeker must continue to move in
that same direction; the Seeker may only move
backwards or change direction after landing
on one of the 16 moss-covered stones spread
along the path.
Stones that are not a full
circle are still 1 space.
