We like Mysterium a lot, it is very similar to Dixit if you've played it. I could never get into ultimate werewolf though, the one night thing always made it just feel like chance to me.
Oh interesting! Dixit I have played but its not a very complicated game. Does mysterium add some more complexity?
Yeah, a bit, it's still a somewhat basic but I enjoy this more. One player is a ghost and the other players are working semicollaboratively to identify the room, suspect and murder weapon with in the first instance each player having to identify a set of the three. The ghost has the three pre allocated for each player so then it's giving out hint cards for the players to identify the correct thing, which is itself a card. The ghost can't talk so can only communicate through the hint cards. Once all three have been identified for each player there is then a voting to try to identify the right set based on more hint cards with players seeing only a limited selection depending how well they did on the first phase.
I hope this makes sense, I can explain more if it's helpful!
Super helpful! Thanks a lot! I guess its most fun with many people :)
Yeah there is a way to play it two player but I think five is ideal
