BETRAYAL AT HOUSE ON THE HILL | Roll Play - Episode 1 

Thanks for the confirmation!

You are absolutely correct! During the editing of this video, I was looking to cut out as much of the rules explanation as possible so it didn’t delay the start by too much. (I recorded the rules explanation separately from the actual gameplay portion of the video) It appears that I left out the part about the person who rolls less than the number of omen room tiles being the actual haunt revealer. The video makes it sound like the opposite. Just goes to show you even an editor can make a mistake 😅 We did play the game correctly (for the most part though). There’s a few mistakes that were made along the way. Hopefully you enjoy the video if you watch the rest of it!

@@eNiGmAHD1 Yes, I watched and enjoyed the entire video, even reading the haunt from the book. BaHotH is a complicated game even during the exploration phase, so someone watching the gameplay itself could miss mistakes the players make. Explanations are clear and straightforward, so a mistake in them is easier to notice.

I’m glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for being understanding 😁 Betrayal really is a fun board game, and I actually have the expansion ready to go for a future recording session. I also ordered the new Scooby Doo version, but that’s been delayed several times now. So who knows when I’ll be able to try that one out haha

@@eNiGmAHD1 A Scooby Doo version? Jinkies! I've got to order that! How can they turn the gang against each other believably? Shaggy and Scooby were often scared out of their skins, (sometimes) Daphne and (rarely) Fred doubted the ghosts or monsters were fake, but nobody ever turned on their friends.

I know! I have no idea how they’re going to do it. I’m just hoping they incorporate the monsters/villains from the old show. It’s called Scooby Doo: Betrayal at Mystery Mansion in case you want to look into it! I think my preorder says it’ll ship in July, but it was supposed to ship earlier this year. So it could be delayed again. Hopefully not though haha

Thank you so much for your comment! Hopefully this year I can start up the board game series again! I have plenty of games in my backlog, but I also have expansions and variations of Betrayal (because it’s one of my favorites too 😁)

Haha, I’m glad you’re enjoying it! And as I said before, it’s nice to know someone else is pitching in when I’m not there to ensure they have chaos to deal with 😂 In all seriousness though, I love them. Very happy and lucky to be friends with Wolf and Phoenix. Did you manage to catch the 2019 Egg Drop video as well? I can link it to you if you like! That’s top tier content too 😅

@@eNiGmAHD1 yes I did! Kage showed me this video last night and then told me to watch this one! Going to watch the clue one where there was a mess up apparently soon LOL

The Clue video was the one I sent you haha. Talk about CHAOTIC 🤣 if you enjoyed those other ones, Clue will not disappoint! Let me know what you think of that one. It’s a lot to witness lol

@@eNiGmAHD1 OH I ONLY SKIMMED IT WHILE AT WORK. Rewatching full thing right now omg

Oh God...skimming probably makes it sound so much worse lmao. All context is lost at that rate

Thank you very much! We’ve never seen that haunt before either haha. It was a fun one though! I’m glad you enjoyed the video 😁

I do appreciate the feedback, but please keep something in mind. This was our first time as a group playing this game on camera. I wanted to keep our experience as authentic as possible by not going into it with a ton of prior knowledge of the intricacies of this game. (Of which there are a lot) Sure, we messed up some rules. But the entertainment far outweighed those instances in my eyes. And I made sure to point out our faults in the edit, but there’s not a whole lot we can do live in the moment to fix those mistakes. We did our best to read the rules, but we’re ultimately there to entertain the viewers. Would you rather have me include the 20+ mins of us reading a booklet on camera while we figured out what to do to remedy the situation? I certainly wouldn’t want that. Not to mention, adding the video element to playing a game throws an entirely different spin on the game-playing process. There’s a lot to keep track of… I put something out into the digital world that I’m proud of, and we had fun creating it. I’m sorry you didn’t get what you were expecting out of the video, but I’m grateful you watched it anyway. Thank you for your comment, and I hope you have a Happy New Year

@@eNiGmAHD1 Oh, don't get me wrong I didn't hate it at all. There's a lot of different groups playing board games on RU-vid but I don't generally tend to watch most of the videos to the end because I don't always like every person in the group or their dynamic. I very much did like ya'lls and I found the video very entertaining. It was more a comment venting the frustration, that's all.

Thanks for the clarification! I’ve been at this for so long, I always appreciate hearing feedback from people. It’s how we grow as people and as creators on RU-vid. And it means a lot to me that you watched to the end! That dedication means we managed to do something right haha 😅 Hopefully we can put out some new board game content for 2022. I definitely have some good picks waiting in the wings Do you have any games you’d recommend?

@@eNiGmAHD1 Well since you asked, have you guys ever played Spirit Island? Wonderfully thematic and it's all co-op so you get those feel good teamwork vibes. Unmatched is also another great one with some theme, just more adversarial. It's easy for the audience to see the action too. Lastly, in a similar vein to Betrayal, with regards to secret roles/information and exploring rooms, Nemesis is a great little horror exploration game. Very difficult but also pretty interesting. It's basically Aliens the board game. I honestly appreciate the audience interaction, even on an older video. I look forward to seeing what other board game videos ya'll have on your channel, and what may come in the future.

I definitely haven’t play Spirit Island, but it sounds cool! I’ll have to run it by the group and see if anyone has it. And I’ll do some research on Unmatched and Nemesis too! I loved themed games, and it actually gets into the idea I had for my Roll Play series, which at its core is playing games as the characters in the games we’re playing haha. I love to chat with viewers! I always try to reply when it’s genuine interaction. It means the world to me that people check out my stuff, and I never want to lose sight of that. Whether I have one subscriber, or 1,000. I have some surprises in the future though! New gameplay stuff, new board game ideas, and some entirely new series altogether. And thank you for chatting with me! I’m excited to start posting again soon, and I’m happy to have you along for the adventure 😁
