      There's three other thing that does make Awkward Guests better than Cluedo - 1. It can be played single-player, 2. Some cases have the chance of there being an Accomplice to the murder and 3. You DON'T need all the clue cards to solve the murder.

    "Time Loop mystery" was all I needed to hear to instantly fall in love with the idea of Tragedy Looper!
    Sadly, it seems like just finding the game itself is a laborious quest, even before you can begin the difficult process of locating other people actually willing to learn how to play it. I hope I'll still get the chance to play it some day.
    Hadn't heard about Cryptid or First Contact, but they sound incredibly fun and interesting, while having an easy enough learning curve that you can introduce them to anyone! Thanks for the recommendations!

    • @sorceressferaly4026
      @sorceressferaly4026 Před měsícem

      ​@@secretscarlet8249 It's sadly a common problem with out-of-print games that aren't likely to see reruns any time soon. I did manage to find it eventually through Ebay.
      My best advice is to keep an eye out and set up auto-alerts on online auction sites. Best of luck to you, I hope you manage to find it!

  • @patrickhohmeyer7416
    @patrickhohmeyer7416 Před 3 lety +4

    While I absolutely love Alchemists, I am not certain that it belongs on this list. It's a worker placement game *masquerading* as a deduction game. Sure, there is a puzzle to solve, but in the end it's about victory points and while solving the puzzle does help gaining those points, it is not required and you can totally win this without knowing what's going on.
    And if you only focus on solving the puzzle quickly, you'll almost certainly lose to an experienced player.

    Would recommend a game called Inkognito, in which you are spies in Venice on secret missions. You spend the first half of the game finding out who your mission 'partner' is - & there is a strange 'randomiser' gadget that produces coloured balls! Can't fail to amuse & intrigue.
