Should you buy Betrayal at House on the Hill 2nd edition?
(Image credit: Future)
As a series, I wouldn’t hesitate to say that Betrayal at House on the Hill ranks amongst thebest board gamesoverall. It puts you slap-bang in the middle of your own horror movie and sets everyone loose on a haunted house. Because its rooms are randomly drawn and placed when you enter, you never know what the building will look like ahead of time.
The same goes for its random encounters, not to mention the scenario you’ll play. There are around 50 missions available, and the one you get depends on where it’s triggered. This may then turn the house or one of your allies against you… hence the title. You may discover that your ‘friend’ has actually lured you all here as a human sacrifice, for example, and you now need to escape. Or maybe the mansion is slowly sinking, so you have to get out. There’s really no telling what will happen. While these scenarios aren’t always balanced perfectly, it’s a tremendous amount of fun regardless. Each ‘team’ gets their own secret objectives, for instance, so you’re working against the clock to complete yours even as you guess what your rival is up to. So far asHalloween board gamesgo, it’s atmospheric.
For me, whether you should dive in or not depends on how expensive the more modern equivalent is.Betrayal at House on the Hill 3rd editionimproves on the formula in pretty much every way in my opinion, from accessibility to art design. However, it doesn’t usually dip so low as this in price. (As a case in point, it’s currently$35.74 at Amazonrather than the MSRP of $55.)

Crucially, its scenarios are entirely different. Even if you’ve played the new Betrayal to death, you’ll still discover dozens of unseen stories here. I really respect developer Avalon Hill for that; the team could have just copy/pasted those 2nd edition missions across to 3rd, but they chose to start fresh instead.
Not feeling it? If you’d rather get something more meaty, check out Mansions of Madness. This is cut from very similar cloth and is currently$86.99 at Amazonrather than $110.
Big savings should be on the way thanks to next month’sBlack Friday board game deals, so regardless of whether you want2-player board gamesorboard games for adults, be sure to keep an eye out.
