It's a little heavy and can take a while but it's really fun, it's a coop game too. Usually our group consists of my wife, her brother and I, sometimes my mother in law too. You can also play alone which is really nice for learning the game so you can explain the rules to others, but I've never felt so alone as playing Arkham Horror and drinking whiskey at 10am, all on my lonesome. Question: When you play Arkham horror by yourself, do you control one investigator, or multiple investigators in case one dies (so you can keep going) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the base version, so I think I can only use 2 players (but maybe not), but I definitely want to use as many as I can, so if some die, they stay dead.

I haven't played it yet, but I own both of them. I like the board game, but it's so long, so I've wanted more accessible Lovecraftian world with the LCG.

That’s all I have too... haven’t played in like a year.. I’ll get it out of the closet today and figure out how I was setting it up, but I think there was a setup in the book showing how you could play with multiple (over 2) characters Edited January 3, 2018 by domepatrol91 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That gives you enough cards, otherwise you don't have enough of the base cards to have more than two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I have the board game (the one I linked to on page 1) so I can’t help out a ton there... the card game is on my wishlist though.

titansNvolsR#1 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Played Exit: The Game - Secret Lab with some friends the other night. Lot of fun. Took an extra 30 minute though since one friend messed up the first/easiest clue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I got The Thing: Infection at Outpost 31 for Christmas and I have no board game friends. I just set it up and look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I liked the one that I played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gnat Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 Starting a game of Risk Legacy next Wednesday. I'm excited for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm moving to a different state in April where I know a lot more people, so I'll just wait until then. I've literally never in my life even more excited for any kid of game.
