I do, but it's not always a reliable method of determining game complexity. For example, Rodney's Arcadia Quest tutorial is about 40 minutes long, but the game isn't particularly complex. It just has a lot of rules and in the tutorial Rodney gives examples, which takes time to explain.

It is less abstract than Mysterium (which is a lot of fun too). In Paranormal Detectives, you are trying to find the clues to a very specific scenario (28 in the box, plus another 20 - and more to come - in the free Lucky Duck app).

This is like Black Stories mixed with Cluedo, with the mechanisms of Muse in Party&co style ;)

Sorry to reply to such an old comment, hope you still read these - but does the ghost only ever do each interaction once throughout the game? Ie. Hangman's knot is played by Detective #1, do Detective #2 and #3 also discard this Interaction card? Or does the ghost come up with different "knots" each time the card is played again?

Thanks for the interest Jason, I talk a bit about that here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/d5ioptevebjHZqQ.html&t=342

One thing that was missed that I think is important; there are 2 cards that involve the ghost touching / holding other players (The Quill Pen and Ghost Touch) If you are playing this game where one of the players feels uncomfortable about being touched - that is okay as those two cards can be removed (I think there is something in the instructions about that)

@WatchItPlayed

4 жыл бұрын

That is correct. I feel that's less of a rule, and more of a suggestion - a good suggestion though.

@JimJonesGreatBigTable

4 жыл бұрын

I have used that suggestion as a guide for interacting with potential players. I explain what these two communication methods entail. If the person is uncomfortable with being touched on the back, I ask if the are okay with the drawing occurring on the back of the hand. If they aren't comfortable with that either, I offer to draw it in the air with my finger or on the table in front of them with my finger. For the quill, if they are uncomfortable with their wrist being touched, I offer to have them hold the pen near the base, while I hold the pen at the top. So far, those have all been acceptable. Of course, if these accommodations aren't acceptable, then we would remove the cards. I think it is great that the rules included this guidance in the first place as it a simple reminder about having a discussion about consent and personal space that appreciate. I also appreciate that it is handled in a very matter-of-fact, nonchalant, way.

The Ghost mechanic is similar to The Chisel in Detective City Of Angels, only the Chisel wants nobody to win :)

Yes. There are nine different communication methods in the base game (my group immediately thought of a couple of ideas for more communication methods that could be added to an expansion). Depending on the number of players playing, there will be more or less overlap of communication types among the different characters.

This looks like a lot of fun! I'm guessing the victim died when you didn't wear a checkered/plaid shirt for recording?

Nope. You’ll find this covered in the video, but the ghost gives a ghost clue after a failed guess. This means that one is played after each of the first 3 failed guesses.

In the rulebook set up page, it states “In 2, 3, and player games where Detectives are supposed to discard fewer than 2 cards, those players are allowed to swap those cards with any other Interaction cards from Detectives not in the game.” I do not understand this part. A two and three player game discard 0 cards during setup. I could use some clarification, please.

@WatchItPlayed

Point 5 of the set up says that detectives discard all interaction card without the player count icon that matches the number of players in the game. Then there's the note you mentioned. It is about people who do not feel comfortable with the two interaction cards that require some physical contact between players (Ghost Touch and Quill Pen). The note states that those players may discard these two types of cards instead of the normal set suggested by player count icons - and take something else in their place.

It is a little more direct in some ways and a little more abstract in others. Also, none of the players at the table are the murderer, so you are trying to guess the five elements of a particular story. By the way, the box comes with 28 stories and there is an app from Lucky Duck that will give you 20 or so more and they have plans of releasing another 24 in the app in the next year and are looking at making it easy for fans to write stories and get them loaded into the app.

This wouldn't really happen. At least one player would always make a guess, because as long as they got at least one thing right, they would win, if no one else made any guesses.

How many times on average do you play each game in your collection? That's a question I always try to take into consideration when worrying about this sort of thing. Some people play their games 20+ of times each. Others 5-10 times. Others have loads of unopened games in their collections. If you're in the 20+ category, than this might be a concern. If you're in the other two categories, maybe not as much? :)
