Halloween: The Game is a lot to take in for a new player, not helped by the fact that the game doesn't explain much to the player when jumping in. In this guide, we'll explain one of the core mechanics to be aware of, that may just be confusing you up until now.
Overview
What Is Poise?
Simply put, Poise is the game's way of letting you stun Michael Myers. Each time he is damaged by survivors, his stun meter builds up. The speed at which the stun meter builds up, is entirely controlled by the amount of Poise the civilian attacking him currently has.
You can further boost Poise with specific perk cards, like 'Solid Foundation' which will give you a flat % bonus to your overall Poise power. This stat can be helpful to any players looking to take Michael on in an attempt to buy time for their team, or to help cops subdue Michael when he is downed.
