Loup Garou pour Une Nuit

Maxstar7,5

This game never dissapoints. Easy to pick up yet still engaging at a higher strategic level, I find myself playing this one again and again. Part of its charm is the way it effortlessly slides itself into any situation, creating hilarious game nights, light Saturday evening fun, or tense moments of gothic thrill with the lights off and chilling music on full volume. What's more, One Night has almost endless opportunity for enjoyment, with just enough novelty for a fresh and exciting experience, but also falling back on the well-established mechanics of social deduction games. The expansions, while not neccesary, add a lovely flare of personalisation, while helping to freshen up the experience by adding more characters. Unfortunately, I do have a minor quarrel with this game; its randomness, while sometimes thrilling, can lead to dull and uninteresting games, whether that be due to drawing a dud character, or if one team grossly outbalances the other (though these issues can often be resolved by playing with more players). Overall, however, I do conclude that One Night is a spectacular game, worthy of the title of a classic, even, and the only reason I do not score it higher is because maybe, just maybe, it is a little overhyped (becoming akin to the likes of Exploding Kittens and Catan). Maybe.

1 partida en Jesta 2015. Una decepción total! Después de haber jugado al "Hombres lobo de Castronegro", obviamente vas a compararlos... y sale perdiendo. Termina la noche y no tienes ninguna pista de quien es el hombre lobo, la gente se queda parada y nadie dice nada (quizá con quien jugué no se enteraba de la película). En cualquier caso, me esperaba que fuera mejor que el Castronegro, porque puedes jugar con menos jugadores y cuesta el doble... y no fue así.
