Greater Than Games Announces ‘Legends of Sleepy Hollow’
Solve the mysterious disappearance of Ichabod Crane in this new board game!
From the makers of Spririt Island, Lazer Ryderz, and Fate of the Elder Gods. Legends of Sleepy Hollow comes from designers Ben Pinchback and Matt Riddle – they also created best-selling Fleet, Eggs & Empires, and Wasteland Express Delivery Service.
In Legends of Sleepy Hollow players take on the roles of four residents – undertaker Jeremiah Pincke, minister Elijah Kappel, Revolutionary War veteran Matthias Geroux, and tanner Emily Van Winkle – in a cooperative, miniatures-based, campaign game full of secrets and twists. During the game, players will use an action pool to move about, investigate, interact with their environment, or unleash powerful attacks and abilities that are unique to each character. Once selected, however, these abilities will be unavailable until that character’s action pool has emptied – a process that becomes more complex as that character gains fear.
Players will have to work closely together to overcome their fear, unravel the mysteries of the glen, and become true Legends of Sleepy Hollow.
The project has some great artists on board to help players really get into the game.
Abigail’s work has been shown extensively throughout America from NYC to Los Angeles, as well as galleries in London, Paris, and Madrid.

Her fully-illustrated version of H.P. Lovecraft’s “The Cats of Ulthar” was released in November of 2016.
