for a game that gets praise for being thematically strong, i actually really struggled with the theme in dead of winter, precisely because its mechanics seemed so at odds with the setting it's trying to portray - that you are some nameless leader commanding a changing horde of survivors...who might actually be evil? and the gimmick of getting you to hide information (the secret personal goals) feels like an awkwardly forced way to make the hidden traitor mechanism work. it's just done so much better in other (better) games.

also that last game sounds like an inferior version of the invention/presentation game (whose name i forget) from jackbox 5.
