Betrayal at House on Haunted Hill

I love it. Lots of fun, not as complicated as other non Parker Bros games.

Though, and I know you probably won't believe this, but I've met three separate people in my life that refuse to play it because it's too scary. A game that is essentially Scooby Doo. All women, all separate instances.

I had fun playing it but the positive and negative feedback loop struck me as unsightly.

Played with people I didn't know (community college game room) a few years back and had a blast. It's a good game and I would play it again even with you OP.

It really is a great game to play with strangers, friends and even kids if they're around 10.
Too bad the expansion pack is so broken.

I love the game. Me and my friends tend to play the same characters each Haunt, so we've almost got an ongoing story involved with it, basically a Groundhog Day loop. The story isn't intentional, it's just that there's been unusual patterns - for example, when my character would be the Traitor, inevitably I would have a victory condition that didn't depend on me killing anyone; coupled with generally getting the Armor and the Spear, and my character was the "paladin" trying to end the Groundhog Day loop.

Since picking up Widow's Walk we've moved into "Season 2". So far of the five games, I've been the villain four times. So I guess my paladin fell.

Anyone gonna pick up the DnD version?

Weapons not helping when getting attacked basically means that if you don't kill whatever it is with your hit/your allies combined attacks, its likely about to wreck you. Not the worst, but in the zombie lord haunt its troublesome.

But its a fun time regardless of tiny nit-picks like that.

I'll wait until early adopters are able to really digest it.
Looks like it has some real potential to set itself apart, and have some interesting scenarios.

Im pretty big into horror and through sharing my interest with others I have met some people, men and women, ho just cant handle anything. Scooby Doo is too much for some people.

I wonder how much they'll change up the game. If it's just the same with a DnD flavor, I'll probably not pick it up. But if it is indeed different enough to make a difference, it'll be a for sure team for me.

It's definitely a lot of fun in the beginning, but you learn the haunts pretty quick. Also if you're stuck in the basement alone when the haunt happens you're fucked because nobody's sending the mystic elevator down to get you unless you're necessary to win.
