Hi, my name is Francesco Gambino and I am an avid board gamer, professional Graphic Designer, and professional Ghostbusters fan. For the last 10 years or so, I have been working on a Ghostbusters board game in my free time. The game itself is a love letter to Forbidden Island with combat and shopping modules attached to it. It has been extensively playtested and refined over the years. Additionally, it uses artwork from the 2009 Wii videogame. (the best version IMO).

In the end, I am extremely proud of this project. It may never get printed, but I finished what I set out to do, and that is enough for me. I have decided to create a print and play version and share it with you all today in honor of my son's 3rd birthday. There are different versions of the files for those who do not have access to a laser cutter. I have collected all of the files here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing

That is great to hear! There are a few extra components you will need. 1d6. For the PKE Meter dial, you will need 1x 12X8mm Black Plastic Rivet. And For the River of Slime Module, I picked up a 1/4" Pink-Red Fluorescent Acrylic Square Rod from Canal Plastic Center and cut about 20 in 2" lengths.

Let me know how it works out for you! If you can't laser cut your own PKE Dial, you can use the PKE Level Cards instead. You will need to remove some of those cards depending on the difficulty you are playing.
