Can you solve my ability?
In a recent All Amnesiacs game, I had 8 days to solve my ability, since we could guess after death. How close did I get? Not very. Can you do better than me? See for yourself and let me know how you go. Did you manage it? Don’t feel bad if you didn’t, because I…

Yaggababble Release – A New Demon

An Engineers Choice
What is an Engineer to do? Playing Separation of Church and State, a delightful script by Aero, with 10 players the choice to me was obvious. While Legion is always an interesting choice, I decided that minion manipulation was the way to go, and with 2 minions in play I had options. Unfortunately, I was…

This information can often make or break a game, given the true/false nature of it and the inherent puzzle in that. Giving good information that is not too game solving but also not impossible…

Village Idiot Release
A new character! A townsfolk. The Village Idiot. Here are my quick initial thoughts an hour or two after release. These are likely to change as I get to actually play with and as this character. While being a townsfolk, it is also amazing for evil as a bluff, if they explicitly get it or…

Huntsman is an Outsider
Probably my least favourite Townsfolk is the Huntsman. It feels like it should exist in the Outsider category, and here I will briefly explain why I think that. It has a major downside, adding an outsider, the Damsel, which includes an extra loss condition for the good team. There is an upside, being able to…

A Monk Shaped Hill to Die on
Everyone has opinions, on something or other. This is one of mine. I know the reasons it will never be changed (existing printed versions the primary one) but still, here I am, fighting for it. The Monk should be an Each Night role, not an Each Night*. While on Trouble Brewing the change doesn’t affect…
