Avalon Hill Betrayal at House on the Hill, Green

My daughter in law wanted this for her birthday. She was pleased as punch and we all enjoyed playing it

Great game goes beyond simple game mechanicals combining party game with board game. One of my all time favorites. only thing I dont like is that my trackers dont stay put. They may have fixed this by now, but it is truely annoying.

Fun but unbalanced game

This game grabs your attention and holds it until the very end! Every event is unexpected and exciting until the very end! There are 50 different scenarios that can play out and no one knows whats going to happen until it unfolds. For this reason the game is fun even if you lose. The sequence of events turns into an epic horror story that is fun to look back on even after the game ends.

It was pretty fun a smash at parties. Once you get through the rules it should be pretty much straight forward.

Great game. We played with players age 5 to 40. Despite the 5 year olds inability to read, we had a blast. The changing board and variety of scenarios, plus one player becoming the bad guy is a hit with the family. A lot of hours of fun with no two games sessions ever being the same.

Its pretty simple to setup, easy to play and very addictive. We have played this game multiple times and have yet to hit a rerun. Fast fun, just make sure no one in your group is a cranky sore looser.

Really awesome game, but many of the scenarios dont make sense.

This is one of my familys favorite games. We all love how the tension builds as more and more omens are revealed making the haunt more and more likely. Another great thing about this is that when the haunt is finally revealed, the tone and pacing of the game can change dramatically. Also, depending on what omen and room combo trigger the haunt, it is likely to be completely different than the last time you played. Components are solid (never did experience any warping of tiles as previously mentioned in other reviews) and replay-ability is outstanding. Love love love this game.

Short version: Its Cabin in the Woods: The Game. Long version: Once everyone knows the rules, this is your own ridiculous, tense, fun haunted house. If youre even passingly familiar with scary story or horror movie tropes, its even more fun. Four or more makes the best group. DONT READ THE HAUNTS BEFOREHAND- part of the fun is the surprise!
