Modular board and 50+ scenarios creates near infinite replayability (2 more)
Super thematic
Semi-cooperative leaves room for fun incidents
Lots of pieces, need quite a bit of tablespace (2 more)
rules and mechanics can be confusing at times
Not always balanced
Great game for horror fans
Betrayal is a must-have for any tabletop enthusiast, especially horror fans. With 50+ haunts, it'll be quite a while before you're bored. Spend the first half of the game on the same side, exploring a creepy mansion. But beware, once the haunt starts, the dynamic dramatically shifts, often putting 3 against 1. It'll feel just like you're in a horror movie!

Clue.

Or, as it's known here in the UK, Cluedo.

The murder mystery board-game.

That's the starting point for this movie, which - basically - is a live action version of said game, leaving the audience guessing along trying to discover who committed the murder at a dinner party being hosted at a mansion, where - it tranpsires - all the guests (all going by aliases ie Mrs Peacocke, Miss Scarlette, Professor Plum etc) were being blackmailed.

Apparently released with 3 endings at the time, with each cinema only showing a single ending but now (on TV/home release) with all 3 endings shown one after the other.

Who Made Their Enemy Sleep with the Fishes?
Delilah O’Leary is thrilled that she’s been asked to cater the posh fund raiser for the library since she needs events like this to help her restaurant get through the lean winter months. The event is being held at a remote mansion on the outskirts of the town. Unfortunately, the first big storm of the season is due in that night. Even worse, someone dies during the event, and the storm traps Delilah, Detective Capone, Delilah’s staff, and some of the guests, at the mansion. As it becomes clear that the death was a murder, Delilah begins to poke around. Are they trapped with a killer?

This is a mystery trope we don’t see very often any more, and I was a little concerned about the author pulling it off when I sat down to read it. I need not have worried. There was plenty here to keep me engaged and confused as we worked toward the logical climax. We do see most of the regulars (only one gets a cameo as a result of the set up), and it was nice to get updates on them. Meanwhile, the suspects kept me guessing. The atmosphere of the storm also added to the fun of the story. There are some recipes at the end, and the focus on creating a pizza with alternative ingredients. This is the best book in the series to date.
