10 years ago I walked out of my local board game store with what would become my favorite board game. It had everything, characters that could grow and get stronger as the game progressed, a changing board so no two games are the same, and a story that changed each time.
I spent that winter with 2 of my best friends most evenings playing a game, then saying one more game 2 or 3 times. Sure sometimes the traitor was just so powerful there was nothing the other 2 could do and other times it swung back the other way, and we loved it.
Over the years I would get this game to the table as much as I could. I introduced everyone I could to this game. I had played most of the scenarios but every once in a while one I had not played would come up and it was glorious. I was running for my life as a blob was engulfing the house, (I didn't get very far).
But I knew a new expansion wasn't coming. I'd read multiple threads citing how Mike Selinker said it wouldn't happen. and then it did.
and then I pre-order it.
and then it arrived
and then I scrambled to get a game night together and people showed up, and while now I was in my living room, I was back in my buddies living room exploring this familiar haunted house for the first time again.
If you are a fan of Betrayal at House on the Hill you will love the expansion.
