Re: your first turn ==> Something this game taught me the hard way is: A) If possible, never stop your turn one room away from a baddie, since there are many "move 1 space toward you" cards in the mythos deck, in every episode and for every elder one, and B) If you can rest and have fewer than 2 stress left, rest. Not only does it help with unplanned attacks (lost one game like this) but there is a whole lot of discovery cards that ask you to spend one or two stress to get their benefit (again, in every episode) ^_^

At 42:31 i would have taken the monkey paw personnaly. Since the card says you MAY transform an elder sign into a success and insanity. So it's just an option that you have when needed. Even if you lose it later, that's not important. Good video. I played it 7 times and i'm still looking for my first win.

Super old comment but no, you don't need the monkey to claim the paw. If you have the monkey, he realizes that it is his paw and gets angry, wounds you, and runs away. Either way, there is a monkey paw in the room. This is how it was explained to us recently.

hi! just a question.. on 54:00, you rolled 2 successes and 1 elder sign. according to rasputin's skill arcane mastery, you may count 1 arcane mastery as a success. that means, you should wound the lab token 3x instead of 2x right? just want to clarify..

@RollingSolo

Yep! If arcane is a success for 1 of them, I should have. Hopefully caught this in the pinned comment. Cheers!

Seems like an interesting game. I decided against backing this and kinda regretting it now. The stress mechanic for rerolling looks like its been lifted from the Deep Madness sanity mechanic.

10:40 I'd very much like to trade my short term memory away! lol I came to see this game because someone in my area is selling it, but my first impression of this game is just the same old Arkham Horror but glorified with miniatures. You move, you investigate/remove monsters, then eventually you fight the elder one with whatever tools/health you have remaining. Am I wrong?

@RollingSolo

4 жыл бұрын

That’s the basic premise but every episode presents different mechanics and challenges. Also the Elder God you pick mixes with the episode you pick to create a unique situation. That’s the beauty of this one. One episode is much more replayable across Elder Gods. It’s just plain fun.
