House of Poison Review — My 1st Strategic Party game
140Poison your friends in this Ancient Rome themed strategic party game filled with bluffing! Brought to you by Mythify Games and House Fish Balloon, this 20-60 minute lightweight multiplayer game has players completing hidden contracts while guessing other's. You will also manage 2 tracks, a poison and a favor track, trying to get one high and another low. Make sure not to make your intentions too clear and keep your victory points hidden with the cardboard chits (to be upgraded via the kickstarter). But is the sudden death ending and contract completion balanced?
Would the deduction fall apart with lucksacking, or does this stay worthy of being a standalone game to the house of poison narrative art book (which we also cover)?
