Featured Comments

Got Betrayal for $16.99 on Amazon in October which was apparently my price for adding it to a too big collection just to have it. $9.99 for Widows Walk is the cheapest I've ever seen so I've picked that up too. There's a bunch of criticism of this game. I've played a friend's copy once years ago and the copy I just picked up is still in shrink. Still, if you're willing to run the risk of a scenario with a game breaking bug that ruins the experience sometimes, it's entertaining. It's a game that can be won or lost, but it's best to go in to it just to see what happens and be amused at the narrative that emerges. Each scenario tells a story, but they're no great literary works. This isn't going to tell you compelling stories or help you collaboratively write one with your group, but it gives you enough to imagine amusing events and twists and an impression of a story that can be filled out to the degree your group does such things naturally. Anyway, all that to say, if the idea of this game interests you and you have a group you think would be willing to try it, it think this is a good price to pick it and the expansion up together.

BIN price for one of the best games and a solid expansion. Use an app for character management.

Do you know if you were playing the 1st or 2nd edition? I've seen this on Youtube and it looked great. The reviews were meh, but supposedly the 2nd edition fixed a lot of holes/bugs in the story. May pull the trigger on this.

I needed something to add to a purchase to max the chase 50% off, so this worked perfectly. Even if it is mediocre, it's a really good price.

We didn't have any problems with our haunt so it didn't really matter which edition it was. It was fun. Unfortunately the person who happened to acquire all the useful items and stats ended up being the traitor so everyone else lost horribly. But we had a fun time losing.

Some scenarios are just completely broken in the sense that they are wildly unbalanced. It's a strange board game because you could either have a great memorable game or one of the most miserable times of your life but you won't know which you're having until almost an hour after the game starts.

Is that criticism for the main game, or the expansion specifically? I have the main game, and haven't played a huge number of times, but I haven't experienced any big issues like that, and I was thinking of picking up the expansion while it's on sale.

Great game but I highly suggest the legecy version. The base game we played you can get stuck in the basement. The by far is my favorite game of all time.

Amazon did me dirty as I ordered this on Black Friday and now it's saying this item isn't return eligible for me to get it at the lower price. Sometimes I forget how stingy Amazon can be.

I wouldn't say it's an easy game. There's a lot of rules and nuisances to things.

Do I need to get the expansion or the basic game would suffice for 4 players?

Base game can play up to 6 players. Expansion adds more scenarios (haunts) and more exploration tiles.
