Ultimate Werewolf, Infiltration
I finally tricked enough dummies into playing quite a few games of Werewolf in person, and with one exception, the village won pretty much every time. The same people kept getting randomly dealt evil cards, and it became clockwork after a bit, and in one unfortunate game, the moderator made some funny faces during the night, which caused the werewolf to laugh, and the game was over immediately. I would still like to play with a crowd, for sure, but it was good playing with people I know, even though some players didn't get it.
Also got to play Infiltration, which was disappointing. I had a feeling it would be. The play environment wasn't that great, and it was a bit fun to see a bunch of the interactions, but there is not a ton there, and the random layout can lead to trouble, especially when the security officer flips in the second room and all the players get caught running into it, so everyone spent the game wounded. I won because I used the Blackmail File to escape, but one of the players just hit the "end this now" button by jumping the game clock and forcing everyone else to lose. I just...think that this game would be better with a little polish. I don't like the initial layout.
