Cryptid, or Catching the Monster - Fun and Board Games with WEM

[@SGFlicksify]

Seem to have used 3 different artists here for the cover, board and clue books - very odd mishmash of styles. Very impressed with the gameplay & the computer system used for devising the clue setup, though. It deserved a lot more attention to its production.

This reminds me of a deductive, reverse Tobago. Looks fun

Ha, I've seen references to Tobago multiple times in regard to this game, so I compared the two in my write-up on BGG News: www.boardgamegeek.com/blogpost/81566 -WEM

+JW G. I think the most interesting way I've heard this game described is a cross between Tobago and Zendo.

Just finished playing it three or four times should we switch the Greek letter handbook for each game(to a different player)? I was Alpha for each game and I believe three out of the four times I had clue number 17. Ironically that’s the one you had in this video.

Truly enjoyed your style of review. Well done

So this game has a limited number of plays since each set-up has one answer. As an owner and fan of Tobago I like Tobago better. There isn't an answer you are searching for, there is a location you are trying to drive the treasures to. I like the strategy and interplay of that better.

Each set-up has three answers since you have a different set of clues for three, four, and five players. Yes, that's still a limited number of plays, but that number is 162, so I'm not worried about playing out the game anytime soon. -WEM

Osprey Games has regular distribution in the U.S. and Europe, and the game's release date is Sept. 27, 2018, so it's not officially out yet. -WEM
