[UPDATED]What Is Project Riboflavin?

An enigmatic video has been posted teasing something called “Project Riboflavin” releasing Halloween 2016. The video features a still image of some sort of witch looking down on a spooky mansion, and ends with logos for Avalon Hill, Lone Shark Games, and Wizards of the Coast. (thanks to Carl for this scoop). It features a remarkable list of game designers and others along the left side of the image.

A link to the video was tweeted by Mikey Neumann, and retweeted or replied to enigmatically by several of the people whose names appear on the list.


Early speculation is that it is a new project related to Betrayal at House on the Hill, which was designed by Bruce Glassco and published by Avalon Hill. (Riboflavin is also know as Vitamin B2.)

Also in its halls you will find new monsters, items, omens, events, and 50 brand-new haunts, penned by lead developer Mike Selinker’s all-star cast of contributors from the world of gaming and entertainment.
So it sounds like a lot of these people from the list maybe contributed a thing here or there, but maybe aren't, like, deeply involved. Which is fine - gotta be cheaper, anyway. :)

That is an exciting list of contributors.

Board games aren't really my bag, but if they were, I imagine I'd be excited for this! :)

This is way cool! Of course, I haven't come anywhere close to having played through even half of the scenarios for the base game, but this still looks outstanding!

In Medical School, I remember reading once that the shimmering film you see on the top of an undisturbed carton of yogurt was.... Riboflavin.... probably not related...
