Arkham Horror or Mansions of Madness

Mansions of Madness

My fiancee and I are quite fond of board games and tend to play them frequently. However, playing the same games over and over again can get predictable. Recently, two new board games caught my attention, but I'm not sure which to invest in. [url=https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/products/arkham-horror/]Arkham Horror[/url] and [url=https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/products/mansions-of-madness-second-edition/]Mansions of Madness[/url] both look similar and very interesting. Arkham Horror seems to be the original game that spawned Mansions of Madness and other Lovecraft themed games, which makes me think that I should play this one first. Mansions of Madness seems similar, however the second edition has an app that allows for multiple player games without the use of a "Keeper" (basically a DM from the sounds of it) and also allows for single player games. I wouldn't mind being a Keeper, but I don't think my fiancee would be willing to play that role, which makes me lean towards the second edition. If anyone has played these games, I would appreciate your input. What has your experience been like, which of the two do you prefer, and are they worth the price.

  • Unfortunately I haven't played any games like that, but this seems like a good time to get a plug in for cryptozoic's deck-building series. They come with different themes: DC comics, Lord of the Rings, Naruto, Cartoon Network, Street Fighter, and a Rick and Morty themed set coming out. I personally prefer the DC sets because they have the most support and the artwork is cool if you like comics. I love deck-building games because every game is guaranteed to be a different experience. You can play against each other or there's even a "crisis" mode that makes it cooperative. Although there's no actual board, it's a pretty simple game that pretty much anyone can get into, unlike some card games that are super complicated
