One thing that we forgot to mention - yes, you still have to sort the cards, but now the different sections of the deck are different colours which makes for a much quicker clean up at the end of the game! :)

Thanks so much for the compare and contrast! Loved Awkward Guests and this looks different enough to check out!

This video should have a spoiler tag for your next fortnight's Back Chat video :D I actually got rid of Awkward Guests because a guy in my game group has it, and I had heard about this next game. I'll probably back it, but one thing that I found slightly frustrating was how cards/clues can be withheld or repeatedly offered. I know it's part of the game strategy (to not give away potential vital information to others), but it is a minor annoyance to me :D It looks like they've increased the hand size to 7 and the references to 3, so that may help cycle through the clues? Getting rid of some of the ambiguity also sounds like a plus! I'll likely end up backing this. Awkward Guests was a bit difficult to after the last kickstarter. So I should be able to play it and pass it on if it doesn't work for me :) Thanks for the video and comparison to Awkward Guests!

I just received my German copy of Awkward Guests and we very much enjoy it. This however sounds and looks interesting.

I’m intrigued. Was considering Awkward Guests, but this sounds like it might be a better fit for us. My husband and I just started playing Search for Planet X and are really enjoying it. So this is probably something we would enjoy. Thanks for another helpful and delightful review!

I love Awkward Guests (actually played it again with a gaming group last night) and deduction games in general, so this one is an no brainer for me to back. The theme does feel fresh and if the game is more nuanced, that is great too. Thanks for the review!

Nice review... have had awkward guests on my shortlist for sometime now. But hearing your thoughts, it might be advantageous sitting the wait out for this one to launch.

First let me say that I am loving the new intro with the animated logo from black and white splashing into color on the Themer side!! OMG! So great Maggie! Great editing!! Thanks for this video! I have Awkward Guests but have only played it a couple of times and at least one of those was solo. It was great to learn as solo but not the best solo game. I hope they come up with a better solo integration for this one. I will definitely have to check it out! Especially since mechanics and system seems to have improved and kicked up a notch! Thank you for putting this one on my radar! Great preview as usual!!

Hi girls, great review. OMG, I have been searching for awkward guest for a long time without finding it. I am so thrilled that Scandaloh is coming out. It will be an instant back for me.... Thanks for mentioning how it plays at two player in your review since I play most of my games at two. It isalways a question in the back of my mind when I watch reviews to find ojt if it is a game for me.

Thank you for covering this and comparing it to Awkward Guests. I had always considered AG, but have read it had some issues. I'm glad to see you guys enjoy this more AG. I'll definitely check out the KS when it launches.

Thanks for the comparison. If I didn't have AG already, I would definitely consider backing this one. However, my gaming group prefers the murder mystery theme (e.g. CoC, Detective, etc.) and I like the tension of possible liars.

I have Awkward Guests, but I haven't been able to play it yet. I think you've inspired me to try it out this weekend. ScandalOh! looks fun too. Thanks for the preview.

I am intrigued with this game, though I'm not sure how much I'll enjoy it due to its abstract nature, but the theme and mechanics really pushing up my desire to play it. Unfortunately and fortunately, we backed Arydia, but that means we're definitely gonna cool our kickstarter games since it wasn't cheap. Thanks again for another excellent preview!

Hi ThinkerThemer. One year and a few days now... This video was very useful. Haven't played Awkward Guests yet. I can't believe Theme-wise I would agree with Amy more. Frankly ScandalOh would remind me of too much tabloids gossip - which is not for me. How would Awkward Guests compare to say Chronicles of Crime?

Seems a bit lazy to me. Looks like literally an identical game to AG with a different theme pasted on, though sounds like the deduction system has been improved. I was a bit disappointed with AG - not sure it’s got much longevity. Each scenario feels pretty similar to me….and the deck sorting is a real drag
