This is a fun coop game that uses an app to act as the gamemaster, revealing the layout of the mansion and the monsters/creatures/characters you encounter. The app is a nice touch in a lot of ways, in that it frees everybody up to be players, but it ends up absorbing or requiring a lot of focus. I find that the players all tend to crowd around the iPad reading the notes that the app issues. Perhaps if the app vocalized all of the notes instead, so the players just listened to it and reacted instead of obsessing over the iPad, it would solve my problem, but as it is now I found the app use to distract from the game.

Great themed co-op game that follows the Creative Assembly/Paradox model (non-stop expansions/DLC). That business model annoys me and it should be mentioned. That said, the game is excellent, and uses the app well. As with all co-op games it requires compatible groups of players to be enjoyable, but when that is present, it makes the game all the better.

Easy to learn. Nice narrative. The lovecraft universe is well retranslated. Scenario of different lengh. Nice materials. Replayability is desappointing.
