Ravensburger Horrified Games - Greek Monsters - Strategy Board Game - Boost Critical Thinking & Teamwork - Cooperative Gameplay - Unique Monster Challenges - 1 to 5 Players - Adults & Kids 10+

Love these games and we have the universal monsters. Great for 1-5 players

Rules seem daunting but makes more sense as you play it. Fun to play cooperatively rather than against others

I’ve been a big fan of the Horrified games and was excited of this new version involving Greek Monsters. While I do wish they had maybe did something like London monsters (Jack the Ripper, Springheel Jack, etc.), this is still a good version of Horrified. While it is still a reskin, there are some new things/features that stand out. 1. Each monster has 3 symbols. When drawing a Monster Card during the Monster phase, an event or movement of the monster will be represented by its symbol and color just like its predecessors. However, the Siren has 3 symbols like the Branch of Dionysus, Vase of Aphrodite, Wings of Hermes. Depending on the monster you use, other monsters like Medusa, the Minotaur, and the Basilisk share a symbol with the Siren which means multiple monsters can move just like in the previous games. 2. Lairs that must be found. Unlike its predecessors where when you use a monster you place a lair token indicating where you need to go to advance and/or defeat them, you must find them by spending an action to reveal the lair. There are 4 lairs 1 for the Minotaur, Medusa, Chimera, and Cerberus. You must have all the lairs on the board regardless if you’re not using the monster. It gets tricky especially solo mode because your turn can be wasted when revealing a lair for a monster that isn’t in play and 1 monster card will force you to turn over a reveal lair token face down and shuffle any other face down lairs and place them near the locations where a lair needs to be. 3. Heroes have more unique abilities than its predecessors. Where the Universal and American Heroes have pretty much the same abilities, the Greek Heroes are very much different. For starters, there is no Hero with 3 actions anymore though there is one (The Traveler) that has 5 but no ability. Abilities are known as Favor of the Gods (FotG) and some abilities are worse than others. The Shepard’s FotG is looking at the top Monster Card. Seems good, but feels like a bit of a waste of an action especially in solo play. Feels more like an ability that should always be in effect at the start of the players turn similar to the Ranger FotG where he takes a Perk card should the Terror Level increase. For most part, the Heroes abilities are pretty much a lot different from the previous Horrified Heroes. In terms of what I like is the components. The board is colorful and sturdy. The figurines are top notch like in the American Monsters version. The perk cards and the monsters card are a tad flimsy but are well designed. Some of the new ways to defeat the monsters are unique albeit pretty difficult. Cerberus, for example, requires rolling the dice and matching the faces on the locks to open the underworld and send Cerberus back. If there is anything I don’t like is, again, 1 or 2 Heroes abilities isn’t great, There’s also the monster mats for each monster. While great in design, it can be flimsy and easy to bend a bit, but what is annoying are the edges that stick out in the corner and on the sides of the mat. They come in a big bag and if you’re planning to use bag, the mats tends to catch the bag when you pull them out or put them back in. Finally the biggest issue I have is the rules particularly the rules for the monsters. Where the Universal and American monsters have more detail in how they work in the game as well as some detailed background to what they are, in Greek Monsters it’s more streamlined. There are 2 pages for the monsters at the end of the rule book with each monster that list its objective, setup, power, advance, and defeat and it’s about the size of the paragraph of which just about everything can be found on the monster mats. For a game about Greek Monsters, they could’ve gone into more detail background about each for those who are not familiar or don’t remember some of the monsters. I know it seems like a superfluous thing focus on, but it’s seems like a step back from the previous rules where it introduces the monster and then explains how they work and how to defeat them. Still despite these issues it’s still a solid Horrified game that I would recommend to any Horrified fans or to those who love Greek mythology. If you’re not a fan or lack interest in Greek Mythology and monsters this may not be for you. Also might be useful to do a bit research as a brush up for the monsters, the locations (Acropolis , Temple of Nyx etc), and the Legends (Chiron, Orion, etc). Not necessary, but might be useful.

Excelente producto, esta muy divertido el juego

Muy entretenida la manera de vencer a los monstruos, definitivamente debe estar en la colección, un juego muy sencillo para aprender a jugar y entretenido

Good game and components. Last Horrified with thicker cardboard. I play solo or with multi heroes (multi- handed). Great pick up and deliver mechanic and puzzle solving to defeat each monster. Good replayability.

I play this game with my gf and my two children (ages 12 and 10). The learning curve is a little steep and can be a little complex for younger kids. I enjoyed the fact that this was a cooperative / team game so my kids don’t argue and fight as much then. They both had a blast with it and we’ve gotten other versions of the same game (you can get ones with other monsters).
