I wanted to like Mansion of Madness so bad, but after four playthroughs I've come to the conclusion that it is a vastly mediocre experience. I'm not really a fan of insane players potentially having new goals where they only win if everyone else loses, especially with no real way to cure or remove an insane survivor. While the app is definitely a cool touch with the puzzles and whatnot, they happen so infrequently that they are more of a small footnote than a major feature of the game. In the end most of my games went like this: 1) Explore Mansion 2) Find some extremely minor items with a very small bonus. 3) Enemies hit the board and everything slows down as you try to slog through these enemies. 4) People start going insane, resulting in the total breakdown of any sort of coherent strategy. 5) End goal is revealed. 6) Sprint towards the end goal, but halfway to the end goal, the game randomly ends because an insane player has achieved their goal with something you could not have possibly foreseen. (End a turn alone with another survivor, etc) Finally, a footnote - I'm not sure if it was just my particular box or a bad batch: but this game had by far the worst components of any game in my collection. Miniatures with studs that won't fit into holes. Tiles that won't stay inside the inserts. For how expensive the game was, this is inexcusable to me. There is no reason for this poor of a quality of components in a big box game. FINAL SCORE: 5.5/10
