Arkham Horror 3rd ed
I picked this up after enjoying the 2nd ed, and deciding to try it out.
The game has been revamped to be much more modular, in terms of objectives, map, and encounters. Player choice is now much more flexible, with far fewer instances of "oops, I failed to plan for this wildcard issue in my Refresh Phase, and now my entire turn is going to waste". The rules are now largely summarized to a handheld player reference card, although the Azathoth scenario (recommended for beginners) is still a stiff challenge. Rules mistakes that we made in our runthrough:
We ended up playing the Azathoth scenario (and beating it) as well as the Feast of Umordroth scenario (beating it). We started the Veil scenario but could not finish it in time. Cthulhu we're saving till last of all. |
