Thirdly that is Azatoths hardest card, the thing to do is make sure that you ensure that you have characters constantly carry clues to ensure that they can get to a gate quickly and close it before you get over run with monsters. Second if possible try and make sure you have an even number of players, as the game scales on odd numbers you will gain a number of additional actions which is very helpful. There are a few ways to make the game easier, if you are struggling initially the first thing I would look to do is take out all of the hard mythos cards (with the tentacles on the card text) and ensure you have a number of the easy mythos cards in (which have ice on their text face). So in summary: My friends and I really really like this game but it seems to take 3+ hours to play and we never make any progress on that damn omen mystery! What seems to be the trick to this game that I'm missing? It always seemed like we were never able to defeat a monster (and only wound it) and therefore couldn't close the gate encounter in time before the omen shifted. It always seemed like the omen and the gates never could correspond and therefore we could never put a clue on it or we could never solve a gate. We'd burn out most of the mythos cards by the time we even got a single eldritch token on that card! The common cause for this game taking so damn long and us failing seems to be drawing the Omen of Devastation as the first mystery. (If monsters spawn and there's no gates what happens?) What made it worse was drawing favorable omen-shifting encounters on the rounds we were already poised to close gates of that omen, too. (Starting in Shanghai to improve lore seemed like a solid strategy) During this playthrough we were playing for like 3 hours, 4 mythos cards to go, and only 1 token on the card before we called it quits. The third playthough was with a party of 4 and that asian monk lady was basically carrying us through encounters thanks to her amazing stats. (Tokyo and london each literally had 5 monsters on them.) The second play through was just gates everywhere with monsters pouring out of them, no tokens on the omen card, and the doom track down to 1 before we declared our cause hopeless. Solo experience I died by like turn 6 (Thanks to that bombay sickness!). Each time we went up against Azathoth.įirst as a solo experience to learn the rules, second as a group of 3, and third as a group of 4. I've played this game now a total of 3 times. r/tabletopgamedesign - Designer's subreddit.r/boardgameexchange - selling/buying/trading games.Game of the Week Calendar Related Sites & Subreddits The simplest use is to bold game names in your comment and add " /u/r2d8 getinfo" at the end of the post, but this post/sub has other features identified.
