Another year, another board game I'll probably never get to play. I guess at the heart of things, I'm just really not a board game person even though I do find most of the concepts unique and engaging. This is one of the more popular horror-themed board games; I really like the idea of you being the architect of your own house of horrors, and the twist of a traitor ensures all games feel different and exciting. I like the packaging and presentation too, although I do find the actual game figures to be a little lacking in detail and frankly bland. Your fear rating with this one will largely be determined by how serious players are willing to take it and what extraneous features you bring along with it, but like most board games I can't really see this being that scary overall, but rather atmospheric and a little cozy too. Cool concept, but again, I was never much of a board game player and it just brings down the overall nomination for me.

I've decided to put my fears behind me. I'm not going back.
