OUIJA Capture the Flag

Six trials are buried in this house. The living hid them badly. Rest your hands on the planchette, ask a careful question, and something on the other side will spell the answer out — one letter at a time.

The house on Blackmoor Row

Three ways the dead will speak to you

Every flag in this game reached the other side by a different road. Learn the roads and the board becomes a map.

Knocks

One knock for yes, two for no. The simplest channel, and the easiest to fake — which is exactly why the first trials hide there. Count carefully; a third knock means something else is in the room.

Spelling

The planchette drags across the board and the flag arrives letter by letter, out of order, missing its vowels. Reassembly is your problem. The dead are not proofreaders.

Apports

Objects that arrive from nowhere: a photograph, a wax cylinder, a file with the wrong extension. Everything the house hands you is evidence, and some of it is bait.

Loading trials…

Rules of the table

Seven courtesies
for the dead

Break them and the board goes quiet. Quiet boards score nothing.

Agree and be seated
  1. 01

    Never sit alone. Circles of two to five mediums; one account each.

  2. 02

    Keep your fingers on the planchette. No automated scrapers, no flooding the scoreboard.

  3. 03

    Do not pass a flag to another circle. The dead notice, and so do we.

  4. 04

    Attack only what the house offers you. Infrastructure is out of bounds.

  5. 05

    Flags take the form ouija{...}. Anything else is a hoax.

  6. 06

    Ask the house for hints if you must. Easy −10 pts, medium −20, hard −30 — deducted when you unlock.

  7. 07

    When you leave, always say good bye. Boards left open stay open.
