Blood on the Clocktower: The Carousel – Experimental Character Collection

Brokolystar1,0

A simple, mediocre cardboard box (there’s a photo in the gallery). BUT that’s not the worst part: - It’s not just that it comes with fewer scenario sheets (say 5 or 10, instead of the 20+ included in the base game for each 3 scenarios). - It’s not just that it includes fewer scenarios instead of the 3 that the base game has (even though many are popular within the community that uses these new characters), or that it’s missing even a single blank template so you could create your own with a marker... - It’s not just that the manual has fewer pages, or that the explanations aren’t as well-written as the ones on the wiki. - Or the almanac! It’s not just that it’s poorly structured or under-tested, even though we’ve been waiting for over a year... The thing is, it DOESN’T INCLUDE ANY OF THAT. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. It is, quite literally, a cheap, shitty box that only contains tokens. Some tokens that, given how much time has passed since the game’s release, the community has already created for themselves or we simply handle using the app. THIS IS JUST TOKENS AND THAT’S IT, which is not enough, F*** USELESS FOR ACTUAL PLAYING. This is, by far, the biggest disappointment I’ve ever experienced, especially for a product that has been sustained by such an incredible community. The people didn’t deserve this. From now on, I’m turning 100 into a pirate, and I encourage others to do the same. I’m actually embarrassed to write a review like this because I’m not the type of person who usually makes these kinds of comments, as anyone can verify... but this is absolute madness. The money and time we’ve invested, only to end up with this trash, is nothing short of an insult. I just hope, much like what happened over the years with games like "Mafia" or "Werewolf", that another company releases a clone of this game and actually does it right. Screw you, Pandemonium Institute! I’m not even going to say everything I’m thinking, because if I did, I’d get banned. I actually don't even know how people are ranking this in such a good way. They must be really fanboys that eat any kind of slop with no critical thinking, because otherwise there is absolutely no reason to be at least a little bit critical with how much content this box is missing if you wanna really play with what it comes and not having to do the absolute major work yourself, at which point I'll do the tokens too so why is this even a thing...
