About Mary Shelley's Dream
Mary Shelley's Dream is a Horror Roll & Write. In this game you will try to create and reanimate a Creature like Doctor Victor Frankenstein did. Do all this before the Police, who are following your steps, find you and arrest you. You have your game sheet and a pen plus 3 dice (2 white, 1 black). You can also have optional character cards that influence certain parts of the game. Roll the dice: the black die will move the police along, getting the game closer to the end. With the white dice you can score money, skill, luck, work in the morgue etc. on the game sheet. Doing this you then aquire all needed body parts and get enough electric Leyden jars to bring your creature to life and then reanimate your creature. So each turn you roll the three dice, mark the police progress (if any) and mark your action(s) on the game sheet. Then roll again. You win by reanimating the Creature through the various actions you have taken before or lose when the police reaches the end of their track and catches you. Can you make Mary Shelley's dream come true?
