RPG-style Board Games

[Clint_L]

The Arkhan Horror games are amazing; Eldritch Horror is probably my favourite boardgame. Cthulhu: Death May Die is also a good time, and so is Cthulhu Pandemic for that matter (though more of a striaght-up co-op game), so if you're into Lovecraftian horror, you're covered.

Betrayal at the House on the Hill is an all-time classic that still plays great.

I've played some (Mansions of Madness, others I don't remember) but I don't care for them. They are too close to RPGs without being RPGs. So I am very tempted to get into character, to roleplay, to do other RPG things but then I found it didn't really impact the game. Just my experience.

If you work at it any game can be an RPG. Though I do get some odd looks when I use funny voices in Monopoly.

I play almost every game like an RPG, just to entertain myself. It's weird.

Never trust a man who doesn't make a "vroom, vroom" noise while moving when they've got the race car. There's something not quite right there.

We definitely give personalities to our Risk armies. Your are not alone.

It's not my fault the Scottie dog pees on the other pieces as he goes past. It's just what my character would do.
