I had so much fun playing it last night with 4. I think it totally works!

I don't own Deception: Murder in Hong Kong yet but I think I'd choose to play that over Mysterium just because of set up time. Mysterium takes awhile to sort everything and get playing.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. This is obviously a game for bigger groups, and more in the party game genre, whereas Mysterium typically only has two plays in one evening because it takes a while longer.

They aren't murder weapons Tom actually miss spoke. The rules say its "Means" and "Evidence". For example there is one Means card which is "Surgery". Doesn't mean they were killed by the surgery, just that that is how the murderer was able to kill them. So they could have been poisoned, or cut, or drowned during surgery

Still should've been red.

linguotgr conversation is the most important part of the game. Investigators need to talk out what they think based on clues, so fs can know which cards give best info and which ones need to be replaced

What do u think now ¿

+Paco Becerra absolutely love the game! It was a hit at my monthly game night group.

+Kristopher Miller (Kristastic) im New at the hobbie would you Help me with some names? We absolutlly love ticket to ride europe and I think im getting cosmic, we are that kind of bluff, party assholes gamers, peace from MÉXICO

+Paco Becerra Oh my goodness of you like bluffing and social games, The Resistance is my favorite game of all time. Dead of Winter is also great!

+Kristopher Miller (Kristastic) pandemic? Citadels, 7 wonders,? I love strategics too

+Tr1pleOseveN I agree! This game sounds like it would be fun to watch. Especially with Zee (with his background in acting.)

+New Troll and the thing that his parents are chinese might help also :D

I have found that Mysterium only works as a game if you relax the rules about drawing new cards. Dies a death in most groups I have played it with unless the ghost draws and plays new cards to keep it going. Otherwise its a long game that's difficult to win, that feels like its impossible for most of the game. DMiHK works with a much broader range of people I feel.

Dave Lynam the ghost draws a new card every time one is given to a psychic player. Not sure what "relaxed" rules you're referring to.

The Ravens

Dave Lynam ah, that's the best part in our group. It's a resource that you have to manage. we love it as is

Basically I think the game plays better if the ghost has no hand limit.

JevousGaming i think ur group.must be not too good with logic. With my group, unless the fs is really illogical or murder is really good, investigators win most of the time, or very close to.win. Suggestion would be for your group to not focus what got picked but also what has not been picked.

I enjoy Mysterium, but I think I like this better.

Kevin Maxwell this is not a dice tower essentials game. seal of approval/excellence does not mean essential.

Chinese is the written words, mandarin, cantonese, hokkien, teochew etc are the dialects.

Leos Ng vasel apologist

Wow I am just sharing facts. I had no idea what problem you had with the creator of the video. Sorry that I offended that ego of yours. And by the way go do a little search on wikipedia what is Chinese, Mandarin, Cantonese, etc, that's the least you could had done.

Leos Ng with a little research, as suggested, it seems the written chinese is called "Han", which is based on mandarin. there are separate traditions for cantonese, etc. so mandarin, like i said.

Ok now that we are in back in proper discussion Yes, you are right. It is called Han zi (the word of han) after the Chinese Han dynasty, but the origins of that written form go beyond that. And in fact it's only unified by the Qin Emperor. There are no unique written form of words or letters for Cantonese etc, there may be very specified words that can only pronounced using different dialects, but those are also considered Chinese words/letters. Just look at it this way, Chinese is the board term that defined the entire family of the language, Mandarins, Cantonese and other dialects are consider a sub branch of the same family. But because Mandarin is most spoken in China and other Chinese majority countries, I am not surprised that people get confused. So in this situation, when it is written, it's correct to describe the words/letters as Chinese or Hanzi (they are interchangeable, but most non chinese wouldn't know what you meant by Hanzi). The words and letters had no sound to define them, only when it's spoken, then you can further define the spoken sounds and pronunciations further into their unique dialect of Mandarin/cantonese/etc
