Unfathomable

Such an excellent and intense hidden role game. The theming is rich and the story is engaging the whole way through. Lots of upkeep and light on the direct input, but tons of fun anyways.

Since Fantasy Flight lost the rights to Battlestar Galactica, this game was made using mostly the same mechanics. That being said, the things they changed added some neat features to the game. It's a really good reimagining of the old game that I recommend.

This was a birthday gift for my boyfriend! He had played it at a fellow gamers' house and couldn't stop ranting about it. Needless to say, it's 5/5 for him and a 5/5 for me to see how happy he was to get it. Shipping was fast and on time, thanks Miniature Market!!!

I've played two games so far, one with three players and one with four. Both were a blast! The component quality is nice and the artwork is good. At first, I was concerned this game might be too complex for most of my playgroups, but the cards are easy to follow and the player aids are thorough. Thematically the game is neat. Both playgroups really liked the different decisions and interactions we had. If you like co-op games with a traitor, this is a great pick!

I heard it was a lot like Battlestar Galactica which my group really enjoyed. We got this to the table. It did not disappoint.

I love the Cthulhu Mythos and this re-skin of a great game was a no-brainer for me.

With BSG out of print, I was excited to see this game announced. It is good and even though it isn't quite the same it definitely scratches that itch.

This hidden role mostly co-op board game submerges you into the story and you genuinely feel like you are there and chaos happening all around you. It has a lot of details that make it a great experience. Also, your players must commit a couple of hours, it is a long game.

The group I played with said it was better and more streamlined than the Battle Star Galactica game that was supposed to replace. To me, it felt like Pandemic mixed with Eldritch Horror and a traitor mechanic. You have your threats that the group needs to manage while also trying to progress the overall objective. There isn't much of a way to logically sus out the traitor during the game with the inclusion of the chaos deck. As far as traitor games go, I'd put Outpost 31 and Dead of Winter above this game in terms of fun and overall fairness to both the good and traitor team.

I love all the Arkham Files games and this one is no different! The BSG reskin into the Arkham theme was amazing. I also enjoy how inclusive this game is when it comes to the diversity of the characters. Well done FFG!
