Hi everyone, Matt and I are trying to organize a game of Betray at House on the Hill tonight. It's a board game/rpg with a B horror movie theme. It involves 3-6 players exploring a haunted house without a predetermined map. The house's layout changes every single time the game is played because you draw room cards every time you entire a new room. These rooms could hold events, items, or omens. Omens work like items but when you find an omen it triggers a haunt check. The person who triggered the omen will roll the dice and as long as the result matches or beats the number of omens on the board, the haunt will not happen.
The haunt is an event that will happen after a failed haunt check. Depending on the room with the omen and what the omen is a haunt will take place revealing one player to be a traitor. Who the traitor is IS revealed but the other players will not know what their win condition is. There are 50 possible haunts and the traitor is usually determined by skills.
If you want to learn more read the link next to about.
We will be playing on the VASSAL engine. It's a small download so it won't take that long. Download that and the module and we can play.
There can be 3-6 players so if you want to play please check in here. Matt and I want to play by Midnight so please be ready to play soon!
If you have any questions about how to play or how to use the engine please ask here. I will post instructions on joining our game when we're ready to play.

Here is a video of the game if you want an example. It will not take away from the game because there are 50 possible situations and the game will not look like this for us.
