Pros

  • I thought that since our 60-70 min Horrified games go smoothly, we could push to 90-120 min.
  • other games i recommend taking a look at are: Little Alchemists, Space Bace, Machi Koro, Marvel United, Marvel Zombicide, Horrified.
  • Horrified: No hand cards, easy to manage multiplayer
  • If that makes her nervous, the original Horrified is a little easier.
  • for multiplayer I’m getting Heat: Pedal to the Metal, Horrified, and Eldritch Horror.

Cons

  • Parent context: The Horrified series isn't particularly hard? Reply: But it does get harder with more players. A rule of thumb from another player a while back was to add the number of players and monsters and if the number exceeded 7 th...
  • Parent context: I loved Horrified for about 5 plays. Then it just got way to simplistic and forgiving. Like my group and I aren't some hardcore players but the fact when characters "die" they sort of just go back to start felt a little w...
  • It's a step up from Horrified, I think
  • Wondering if it’s a step up in complexity since horrified felt a little simple/boring for my group.
  • I have all of them and this is my least favorite. Once you get past Cthulhu’s first stage, the instructions make no sense. It was really frustrating. The gameplay did drop off after the first 2 games

Parent context: The Horrified series isn't particularly hard? Reply: But it does get harder with more players. A rule of thumb from another player a while back was to add the number of players and monsters and if the number exceeded 7 then you would have a challenging game. I've found that to be quite true from experience.

Played Horrified and Mysterium with some friends who have only really played Catan a few weeks ago and it was very good. ... Horrified reception was also very good

Like my group and I aren't some hardcore players but the fact when characters "die" they sort of just go back to start felt a little weak. Reply: I loved Horrified for about 5 plays.

Horrified, as others have recommended, is great.
