Game critics slam Betrayal as being "broken" all the time. That may be true, but it is so much fun to play. Unbalanced may be a better adjective; it is true that the scenarios often favor one side over the other, but both sides have a decent chance of winning no matter which one comes up. I have never won a game of Betrayal, but I have enjoyed every single one of them immensely.

I've enjoyed most of the games I've played, but my biggest complaint with Betrayal is the descriptions of the rules. They do a great job at telling the story, but didn't adequately explain some of the special rules created by certain haunts. It can be mitigated, but it was a little frustrating to start the haunt and then pause to search online for rule clarifications.

Thumbs up for putting Mansions above Betrayal. I like Betrayal and have it in my collection right next to Mansions, but Mansions is more mechanically interesting and organic in how you interact with the Keeper's plan. Betrayal's kinda . . . broken. The puzzle aspects also pull me into the theme -- they don't eject me. I feel that the mansion gets personality from the "landmarks" and machinations left behind (the boiler room's trap, etc.). I dunno. Mansion crawls are a sort of genre for me, and Mansions does it well. Betrayal has accessibility and a few interesting ideas, but it . . . sags in places. It's mechanically rough and underwhelming, although the cheesy movie theme mitigates that somewhat. Tom's right in that there's a certain amount of work you have to put toward set-up. That prevents me from playing it more often.

The Thing theme that Zee mentioned for the Resistance, i've already played in my group since a couple of years ago. We changed the task board so that it required a certain person to be on a mission (flavoured as per the movie). If the person required wasn't on the mission the Reject bar would immediately go up by 1. we set the Reject bar at 3 maximum instead of 5. The good guys lose if the bar hit the maximum number of times equal to half the players, rounding up. We tried adding a Flamethrower element at one point but the mechanics didn't work smoothly so we went back to the original Resistance game before upgrading to Avalon a bit later.

I have to agree with Tom & Sam on Betrayal at House on the Hill VS Mansions of Madness. Mansions of Madness is a lot more work. Not only with its set up.But, with how the game is played as well. Its fun once its under way. But, it takes you about an hour and half to get there. With Betrayal at House on the Hill. The set up is easy and you begin having fun almost immediately. Plus, you have to find the right group of people to play Mansions of Madness. Betrayal at House on the Hill you can find can handle a very mix group. and they seem to all enjoy the game play of the game.

I would add Shadow Hunters, Vampire Empire and possibly Dungeon Twister. Shadow Hunter for both theme and the tension/mistrust the hidden role mechanics generate. Vampire Empire is a good 2 player assymetrical game that pits vampires against humans. The bluffing mechanic generates uncertainty and a degree of horror. I mention Dungeon Twister because of how tense the hunt and escape mechanics can be.

Escape from the aliens is a great pick. It's a fun and tense game, but the player elimination aspect can be very annoying.

I was unsure whether or not all of them should be on lists, though they are clearly all pretty horrific. I also had been flirting with the notion of Space Hulk. Does it fit the genre? Sort of, but not entirely. As for Zombicide, I own it, I enjoy it. But yeah, It had crossed my mind and I immediately figured it would not make a list, nor does it quite deserve to. As fun as it can be, it is basically the Zombieland of zombie board games. All it is missing is a Double Tap card, and a safe room with Bill Murray hehe.

An intriguing question at the end of the video: If *you* are the bad guy, could it be horror? Let us examine the facts: Due to the nature of the medium, it is difficult to make player really scared about his *physical* in-game shell: whether it is a piece of wood, a card on a stand or even the most detailed miniature. (Actually, I think the last fares the worst as it unnecessarily binds our imagination!) On the other hand, *psychical* terror, disgust, moral sickness, guilt: those will only benefit by careful abstraction, purification and focus of tabletop gaming. Plus, the face-to-face element intensifies the emotions immensely. Therefore, personally, I think any board game would have better chances to evoke horror-associated feelings IF you are a bad guy, an overlord in conflict with the rest of the group. Make him punish others freely, bend their will, make them turn against each other and blame them for their misfortune a minute later. Be unfair, be cruel. Give the bad guy unlimited power and force him to abuse it. Make him ashamed of what he is and does. That, I believe, is horror. Strangely, there are many pen 'n' paper role-playing games exploring darker side of human nature - yet in board games, medium more visual just by a fraction, it's blood and gore and physical conflict most of the time. We could do much better!

I recently played Escape from the Aliens in Outer Space for the first time and i think it's an excellent game. It's incredibly tense. I also think that the minimalistic artwork adds to the atmosphere. The whole game really is about not knowing anything about your surroundings or about the other players. After all the theme is that all the lights went off in this space station (or whatever it is). The minimalistic artwork therefore makes sense and the little artwork there is on the cards is good and the aliens look gruesome, unusally so for a board game i feel, which i like. It has flaws of course, it's a little long for example, but I love it and i want to play it again as soon as possible.

Horror is stuff that scares us. Halloween hasn't be scary for decades (of my life). Its an opportunity to show some creativity or skin with a costume, maybe drink, and get kitsch. And very few games feel as a "kitsch" as Shadow Hunters.

And by the way, agree with Sam: "Mall of Horror" is a great game and to me, better than "City".

Tom, now I know what you were talking about with having to get the right group for Escape from the Aliens in Outer Space. >:D

Zee, they made a new version of Doom 3, BFG Edition, where the guy actually attaches the flashlight to his weapons :)

Diogmetes I think it actually made the game more immersive than it was

+Jammer5815t AJ Apparantly Ouija is a controversial topic in terms of gaming. BoardGameGeek refuses to add it to their database. It's debateable to what Ouija actually is, a game, a toy, a form of divination, etc...but it's made by board game publishers, so I think it should be considered a game...especially when compared to some things in the BGG database. If I have a Halloween game night, the board comes out so whatever.

I have Innsmouth Escape. It's a fun quick game that works well with 2/3 players. Nothing unforgettable but not a bad game.

I think Chaos in the Old World would have fit the Halloween theme.

I'm not sure why but I was expecting Atmosphere/Knightmare was going to at least get a mention. I can't remember the game that well other than the fact it's was a VHS game.

Atmosfear* bloody auto correct

I have Atmosfear and it's got nice components and decent gameplay, but that hokey video just kills it for adult gamers. I might put it on a kid's list because it's rich with the spooky Halloween theme -- there's a jack o' lantern player piece and everything.

Brian Blackwell The hokey video is the best part! I'm still trying to get hold of the booster tape 'Zombie' where Baron Samedi makes you stand up and shout ' Yo Baron! I can dig it" everytime he calls on you.

Patrick Goggles Just saw this after I made my post. Atmosfear is still by far an away the best Halloween game to play. It just oozes panic and tension as the timer ticks down, and the interaction with the gatekeeper( and others) whislt he slowly decays get the kids really worked up. No game comes close to creating the atmosphere for a Halloween night like Atmosfear does. It's become almost a ritual in our family for many, many years that we have to play this every single Halloween night, and we never get tired of it. So many laughs playing it!

***** Yeah it's not just a game with a horror theme, it's tailor made for Halloween.

Really think you should give Shadows of Brimstone a try if you all have a copy of it. Some pretty horrific things happen in that game. Like that time I had too much corrupting darkstone and tentacles started sprouting from... well, you'll see when you play.
