Don't Panic Games has added two new board games to their United States catalog, as Sacrifice 666 and Who's Next? are available now



Article Summary

  • Don't Panic Games expands its U.S. catalog with Sacrifice 666 and Who's Next?, now available at hobby shops.
  • Sacrifice 666 is a darkly comic card game where cult leaders race to complete rituals by hitting exactly 6 or -6.
  • Who's Next? is a fast musical party game where players must follow the beat, avoid mistakes, and outlast rivals.
  • Don't Panic Games continues bringing English-language editions to North America, widening access beyond France.

Don't Panic Games has added two new titles to the catalog of games going to the United States: Sacrifice 666 and Who's Next? The Paris-based company has been exporting more titles across the Atlantic to North American audiences who haven't had a chance to try out their lineup of titles, especially translating them into English and making them more accessible to people outside of France and French-speaking countries. We have more details on both of them below, as they are available right now at hobby shops.

Sacrifice 666

Sacrifice 666 takes a sharp left turn into delightful darkness. Up to six aspiring cult leaders compete to complete three Dark Rituals before their rivals by sacrificing a cast of gloriously unhinged characters onto each other's Altars. Cards carry values from -6 to 7, and winning a ritual means hitting exactly 6 or -6 on your Altar while reciting a six-second prayer to your Dark Lord. Opponents can disrupt you mid-prayer. The characters range from a Zombie Bait to a Giga Deep One to an Altar Boy who swaps your entire board with another player's. It is chaotic, fast, and unreservedly funny, the kind of game that turns a quiet evening into a recurring bit.

Who's Next?

Who's Next? is a musical party game for 3 to 7 players in which everyone takes on the role of a musician in a band trying to hold it together through a concert. Players pass the spotlight around the table by playing Musician cards in the right order, at the right time — while an oral countdown ticks down. Miss your cue, play out of turn, or freeze under pressure, and you earn a Wrong Note. The player with the fewest wrong notes when the music stops wins. What makes Who's Next? stand out is its progressive level system: the base game is learnable in minutes, but six escalating rule layers keep the challenge growing as players get comfortable. It works equally well with kids on a Friday night or with competitive adults who think they have great reflexes. Spoiler: they don't.
