      @@scdwolfboy I agree, because Sullivan knows that Jon must have seen Miss Scarlett the last time he guessed, the only reason to continue guessing the same card is because it was correct (which Sullivan knows it wasn't) or because you have it in your hand. In this variant especially since you don't know who has the card and thus how far around it got so your guesses would be literally be valueless.

  • @wolfVFV

    Maybe its just me but the murderer seems very underpowered.
    The most broken thing is someone seeing a person card as that basicly confirms that person is not the killer and the information can be trusted. I think a person card should only be shown if the other 2 where shown already too someone too make it the hardest too find out.
    Maybe i missunderstood the rules but how can the murderer figure out what card someone is holding?
    Also if someone gets murdered maybe the cards shouldnt be revealed but put into the hands of the other players.
    Amd finally maybe the murderer may be allowed too see who else in the ropm as him

    • @ExodaCrown
      @ExodaCrown Місяць тому +14

      I believe it is the guessing part of the killer as a win condition was really hard. It just felt really hard to guess what room they are in and a card in their hand, which makes Sullivan killing two people impressive. While having enough rounds to kill everyone in this game, we seen at the end of the game guessing what room they are in is the hardest part. So there was plenty of time to collect information on who did it.
      Things I would probably change is the killer will know how many people are in the room with him, not who with him/her just how many if any are in the room with him/her. Secondly, the killer doesn't have to reveal the cards in their hands. This removes a lot of information from the game for them to spread misinfo. Though when theyh kill of another player the cards become unlocked. So as it comes down to the last innocent can start narrowing down the missing information. A third thing I would do is spread the dead player's cards face down in different rooms like the two rooms that players can check if they are in that room.
      Something for the innocent players, is when they check the card it will get revealed to the table as public information the next round. Meaning the have a turn to move before the killer gets a chance to kill them.
      Stuff I would experiment with is the killer being able to kill someone in the same room as them without the guess of a card in hand. Maybe the killer can swap the face down cards on the board with one from their hands or remove the card from the board completely. Thematically it being the killer planting or destroying evidence.

    • @wfchannel4673
      @wfchannel4673 Місяць тому +7

      i think a possibility of adjusting this is such that the killer's hand is always the other players' cards. that way the non-killers can't immediately know who's trustworthy by being simply dealt that card. you could also adjust the rules so that when guessing, players are always shown weapon/room (if possible) before being shown suspect (if possible).

    Haven't finished watching the video yet, am loving it all so far.
    This is such a cool house rules twist on the game. I would maybe add in an accomplice to this take on the game so it makes it a little more balanced for the 'guilty' team. Maybe have the 2 cards in the 2 locations be 2 character cards and maybe 1 other innocent person has a a character card - therefore the players have to risk something to get the massive benefit of trusting another player. Otherwise it seems a bit too easy to secure confirmation chains. But I may be totally dumb with this thought. 😅
    I really love the House Rules version and everyone played so well. 😊

    Not sure what prevents them from just giving all of their information immediately, the only thing that keeps them from winning almost immediately is if someone other than the killer has their own card, then you’d have to pick between those people. (Or if it’s one of the two cards.)

    • @mvwinf
      @mvwinf Місяць тому

      for the same reason you don’t give away all your information in regular clue. if everyone tell the table all their cards, there wouldn’t be much of a game left, and the next person up would automatically win. yes, they’re technically playing as a team, but the threat of death means that there’s still motivation to be the correct guesser

      @@imdadirtydan I think in this case, any given information would help the killer as well. not to find the truth, of course, but if you guess plum hall wrench and you say you saw hall, then the killer knows you’re actively in the hall rn. and if you say you saw wrench, then the killer can narrow down their list of people who might have that card. if someone corroborates you, then it’s already down to just two people. I do see what you’re saying, though - it’s hard to turn a solo social deduction game into a team one

      @@mvwinf The killer doesn't have time to kill all of them because they're already found out. That's the fundamental issue with the game. They have almost all of the information to begin with and there's no reason not to share it other than possibly dying, which isn't an issue if you just figure it out using all the info to begin with. Even if they don't do this immediately all the dead players cards get flipped, so by the end of the game there's no way you don't have the information to figure out who it is.

      @@imdadirtydan this feels like a very utilitarian view of the game to me. in social deduction games, there’s always a chance anyone could be lying. if you all go around the table and say your cards, there will be discrepancies, and it may not be obvious who is the cause of said discrepancies. so you wouldn’t be able to automatically trust any information you’re given. also, not least of all, that just doesn’t sound very fun? if the game was only figuring out who the murderer is using the cards you’ve been given, it would be werewolf with layers of unnecessary steps. part of the fun is playing detective, even if it’s not the most efficient gameplay strategy
