YESSSS!!!! If you have kids Percy Jackson is a GREAT book series with Greek mythology!
Now that I have a better understanding of the game mechanics of these monsters I love this game

Oh sweet!! Yeah it is a really enjoyable game once you understand how the bosses work! Thanks for watching!!
This made more sense seeing it in action. I found the rulebook more confusing.

I get it! Glad this helped and hopefully you put this down on the table soon!!
Thanks for the playthrough Colin. Horrified does have dcent replayability and this is no different.

Agreed thanks for watching!
I believe monsters in play can still roll, even if they aren’t in a space with a hero. Let me know if I’m wrong, but I believe it comes down to the fact that certain monsters have Special Abilities that can affect the whole board

No they can only roll when they can attack. At least that is how I read the rules!
Thanks Colin, really enjoyed the playthrough. I keep thinking of getting Horrified. Like the original for it's campy Hammer House of Horror vibes, like the US one with the goats and stuff, but I also like Greek mythology. Would you say why you decided to let the first two version go, please? Was it that the replay value had diminishing returns?

Good question Paul! I think the biggest reason was that my kids weren't that into it, and I have plenty of games similar to this where it is a crisis management game. This one however has a theme that they will like (Percy Jackson) and is a tad more complex with the Liars etc. So right now this is my favorite of the bunch! Hope that helps!

@@MeetMeAtTheTable Yes thanks, makes sense! I forgot you mentioned Percy Jackson, my memory is so bad! lol Talking of crisis management, I quite like the look of Defenders of the Wild, that Jason showcased last week. There was also Exoworld Survival that reminded me a bit of Terraforming Mars, yesterday. That would be a sci-fi game for my collection, but the second Dominion Wars expansion has just dropped in the UK and I can't have all three! lol BTW have you played Star Trek Alliance: Dominion Wars yet, and will you be paying it on Meet me at the Table?
Just a minor tweak. Cerberus has 5 door pieces. So the last one, with two blanks and a "!", are two separate pieces. For one you need two blanks, and for the other, you need just one "!" symbol. It's easier to roll, but it does require and extra item and an extra action to do so. So, the big doors require two actions (rolls) to open.

@@MeetMeAtTheTable I believe so. They even use that example in the rule book, for "player's turn" on page six. Also, it would be weird to have 5 door tokens, but needing 4 rolls. I mean, either way it's not game breaking :)

It's more of a B-E switch what he did, probably due to "cerebral" being a common word (or "Cerebro" being Professor X's thingamajig).

@19:46 I was thinking that the goat head of the Chimera required a token of each colour and not any 3, Colin?

The chimera lair tile shows how that would look I think. EX 1[G] 1[B] 1[Y] The 3 tile symbol is seen in several locations, it means any combination of the colors and the number being outside the box indicates a quantity of the tiles, not the strength of the tiles
My impression was every player got a turn and then the monster phase went off..

the "greek" lettering is very hard to read if you can actually read real greek :/

Have you been playing a bit too much with the automa from princes of Venice? Your taking up it's habit of cheating. Yaking extra actions....😂 on a serious note tho, haven played horrified in a while but don't you have to block with items if you have them or lose them when you come off the board?

Hehehe!! No you actually don't have to and you don't lose items or perks! And yes somehow I decided I needed to make up for that last game haha!!
You can’t use your perk cards during the monster phase. You moved the Minotaur with a perk card before he had a second move and attack. Shame shame!!!

Ok. Idk what's going on. Bairnt is playing euros and putting them on the channel, and now Colin is mispronouncing names. I feel the apocalypse is imminent. Cerberus. No vowel between the r and b. So sir-burr-us not sir-e-brus.

AFAIK it should be Kerberus I only know this because for many decades I've been saying Serberus and only more recently discovered that in Greek it's a hard C ie K, as with the Romans (thanks Liz Davidson!) That means Sirsee should be Kirkay But it's all Greek to me! lol Should note that in English soft C is acceptable.

My inner pedant says that the musician should have the Power of Apollo, since Apollo is the god of music. lol The token on Cerberus's door is turquoise, Colin. I agree though that the colours may be too similar and companies by now should be aware of colour blindness. That should be the bench mark for differentiation as non colourblind people can confuse similar colours.
