Fast, Ruthless, and TRUE!

The Terror transports you to Paris, 1793 – the bloodiest days of the French Revolution.

It’s a time of revolutionary intrigue, paranoia, betrayals, and sudden turns of fortune. 

King Louis & Marie Antoinette are imprisoned, facing execution. France is descending into Civil War. The revolutionaries turn on each other. Thousands are sent to the Guillotine.

The game tells the story of the Terror. It can be set up in minutes, moves fast and hits hard round after round. No slack, no bloat. Just screaming good fun!

Beautiful Art. Terrific History.

The Terror is meticulously researched and beautifully crafted from genuine 18th century paintings and etchings, officially licensed from 19 of the world’s great museums. 

Send your enemies to the Guillotine.

The Terror is a “take that” strategy board game with a rich historical theme, in which strong, simple gameplay builds into a fun and frantic battle of wits. To survive in Paris in 1793, you must adapt, deceive, and outmanoeuvre your rivals.

Save yourself by befriending or denouncing the revolution’s famous figures - heroes and villains. Who will you guillotine? Who will you spare? Shift alliances, join or attack factions, and betray others when it suits you. Strategy, deception, and cunning are essential.

Do you have what it takes to escape the guillotine and outlive The Terror?

History Brought to Life.

Our game is based on the actual story of the French Revolution. The war of the factions was real. Each of our 90 Citizen cards portrays a real historical character (Robespierre, Danton, Marie Antoinette and the rest). The game is supported by a new illustrated short history of the French Revolution and great accompanying videos on our HistroMax YouTube channel. 

There has never been a more thrilling way to master and enjoy an epic historical event.
