Bathory - "I'm feeling playful...." Young guy - "Oh, fuck off..." Cracked me up!

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

That is what 99.999% of people would say. Because I don’t think anyone would like to do whatever she views at “playful”. *shivers

[@EightThreeEight]

I think he actually says that because he saw Graham bringing the hat.

[@IrishRay2006]

For anyone who wants to know the actress playing Bathory is French/Australian actress Frederique Fouche. If you've ever seen Superman Returns, you've seen her! She's the French news anchor in that.

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

Bathory is literally the walking embodiment of double entendres, sexual refrences, creepy voice, and the cheesiness and funny sex jokes of the 1990’s

[@slidetrombone]

This got infinitely better when Graham brought out the fedora...

[@BassBaseAce]

I'd say of all of the nightmare games, this one seems kind of impossible unless you have six players, and even then...just damn.

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

Yes. 3 Players= Impossible 4 Players= Could win but Unlikely. 5 Players= 50/50 6 Players=Possibly

[@EricChoiniere]

Ben seems down to bed Bathory, and beyond...

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

I don’t think anyone would be turned on by purple skin, white eyes, unexplainable tubes, metal jaws, hand wings and veins nearly everywhere, but whatever floats his boat 😅

[@getawaystix4591]

18:41 " lets do it" the rallyingcry of all people drinking wine out of a solo cup

[@frogdogcat22]

It's the same actress that played the witch Anne de Chantraine. Her name is Frederique Fouche.

[@dankeeling2253]

The Graham wedding ring remove was hilarious

[@nathano6277]

My play group has never beat Nightmare IV, good to see Nightmare getting some love.

[@gussiejives]

Just to be super pedantic, neither Elizabeth nor Graham pronounce "Báthory" correctly. In Hungarian, it would have been pronounced "BA-toe-ree" (stress on the first syllable, long O, long E). The Báthory family was incredibly wealthy and influential in the Kingdom of Hungary--ruling Transylvania at the time while another cadet branch ruled the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth--and putting one of the nobility to death, even for serial murder, was too much, hence she was imprisoned in her castle (either bricked into her bedroom or permitted to move about her home freely). All the stories of the blood bathing were written more than a century after Elizabeth's death; she was a far more conventional serial killer--insofar as those exist. Although few can touch her sheer profligacy at possibly 650 victims. The game also misprints how old Elizabeth was when she died, which was 54, not 64. Moreover, any relation to Vlad Tepes is... dubious to say the least.

[@kilo3989]

You know, Nightmare is to board games what the Wheel of Enormous Proportions is to trivia.

[@AlannaArtroid]

Oh my god, you're so right!!!

[@EightThreeEight]

Except Wheel of Enormous Proportions is actually fun.

[@Rhynerd]

I forgot that Ian's "Alexa, I can dig it" near the end can actually set off Echoes and Taps. Although it seems that she can't quite hear the "I can dig it" part right.

[@Woodthorn]

Sounds like Nightmare IV is the Dark Souls of Nightmares.

[@MALEMization]

Actually, they also lost the first one as well!

[@awesomeman2569]

but all of them had keys and had bad luck

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

Well, you are speaking the truth. The first 3 games are somewhat easy, this ramps the difficulty level to p**s off miles per hour

[@jamesshepard8297]

It was always always called Nightmare in Australia as it was produced by an Australian company. They called Atmosfear in UK for copyright reasons.

[@aaroncollins6411]

Us/Canada was nightmare as well

[@pixelatedsilva]

You know why you guys lost, right? You never actually used your Wyrmwood dice tray! That would have guaranteed no ones!

[@awesomeman2569]

Pixelated Silva very true sir

[@Kifford]

FINALLY! I've been so keen to see this! :D

[@aaroncollins6411]

Ben: "From 25-30, im protected from all vampires" Also Ben: Becomes a vampire 3 times in 2 games.

Famous Last Words

[@JohnRitchiejd23]

G: "You have a lot of powers. That's scary." Ben: *is somehow more powerful than Countess Bathory* G: *realizes* "HOLY SHIT!" That bit was priceless. Timestamp for that is 1:38:06.

[@enoughofyourkoicarp]

Owing to the beginning of this stream I feel compelled to create a wrestling character named Vlad "The nightmare" Dracula, now to get my hands on a wrestling game, to the Christmas list!

[@russwaddel08]

Try the PSX WWF Smack Down. It is excellent. I know it is 4 years late, but you can use the Undertaker's entrance music.

[@antheathetiefling8581]

1:52:26 um.. they didn't use the chance cards form the game. they used the base cards. and they were also missing the vampire cards that came with it. the vampire cards have everything you need to know about being a vampire..

[@pwootton24]

Man the sound is cracked to 10, almost blew our my ears

[@Firestar4041]

In terms of fan game versions; Like ye, having to work with the board and cards would be tough, you'd have to edit it together for the timing to work out, or make new cards. But you could also dub over the original, like sync up a different challenge or event to when the host pops up, has the benefit of the cards already being timed up better.

[@notasmiler1571]

There reaction to the music video never gets old

[@fleacythesheepgirl]

I really appreciate going out of your way to make the set a bit more spooky and dark. Like we can still see you but it still mixes nicely with the game. A bright set is a little jarring.

[@koomori]

"I'll be in my bunk"

[@Firestar4041]

As crap as the game is, ya gotta give it some props. Makeup artist did a great job, The drive they had to make a multiverse of board game monsters, Each monster bringing in a new mechanic,

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

It’s not crap, it just has the cheesiness and the jank of the 1990’s

[@hayleyteale5224]

you guys got a copy of the newer atmosfear? from 2004, its on dvd and no two games are the same, i can send you one if you want

[@Thrythlind]

4:45 is after dark in Fukushima in November

[@Thrythlind]

By some chance, the way I learned the 0:30 take a key card existed was that I actually got it on my first roll somehow.

[@hqrsyd]

Have fun with atmosphere it is a way better game used to play it religiously on a weekly basis growing up and maybe won 3-4 times tops can't wait to watch you play it

[@wulf_95]

Graham's fear killed me.

[@arturoreyes2119]

Graham at 1:37:58 feeling it like a cosplayer at an anime con

[@ShonenXIV]

Awesome job guys! Ever since Atmosfear 1, I always imagined the day you'd come to final part until the Harbingers. Really wish they done Khufu but they didn't have money. And the DVD version is garbage. Enjoy the Harbingers!

[@echoesvayne9790]

Are those hero quest spell cards Graham has? And the board?

[@_sparrowhawk]

Flirting with a VCR tape lol

[@Tularis]

I love ❤️❤️ these games!

[@firnsarwen]

If you film Khufu's I volunteer to do the makeup xD

[@Flamingbob25]

you know this game is awful but I will say one thing that made this slightly more interesting is the oldest/youngest actually can actually change thanks to the vampire thing, so there is more mixing up of who is targeted assuming you play this with the same group multiple times (because you hate yourself?)

[@kilo3989]

55:40 As of Series 2 of Vampire: The Masquerade, we know the answer to this.

[@jarekvelchek802]

I'm excited to see you play Atmosfear The Harbingers

[@ThomasJeff1898]

And they finally did it. Look it up. It's Part 5 of Tabletop Day 2018.

[@jarekvelchek802]

@@ThomasJeff1898 thank you

[@originalsephiroth1]

I know I am late to the party but your missing the chance cards for this game which give you more chances to gain black rose cards. Still you lot rolled really unlucky and was fun to watch

[@rivercook8212]

also if a vampire fails to geet you, youre supposed to get a black rose as well, this was still a funny watch tho

[@aaroncollins6411]

Most regions didn't have the nightmare iv chance cards

[@hail2mech]

have they played any of the atmosfear games yet?

[@Norfolkinskill]

These were the best ones. The remakes were crap and over complicated. Wish they had finished them all. Was intrigued to see what the mummy was going to be like after seeing the trailer at the end of the vampire video…

[@IrishKeshiHead]

Well if it were likely, the game was going to be likely set up to do some gambling as the host khufu was some type of casino owner who'd put players into games to gamble treasures.

[@alanhanna7944]

the game is rare and hard to find

[@rozol1234]

Hhhhooolyyyyyyy Shhheeeeeeee Fri 13 ? that was 2 month ago :D

Uh yeah, I don't want kids playing this one.

[@PurushaDesa]

I've now got to the end of the stream. No one should play this game.

[@dapperloser3025]

@@PurushaDesa i mean some pepole like the randomness of the other 3 nightmares, but this one took it too far with the vampires essitanly being "YOU FAILED SIT THERE MAKE EVERYONE ELSE MISERABLE"

[@PurushaDesa]

@@dapperloser3025 These ones look really sloppy design wise. The ones I know - _Atmosfear : The Harbingers_ and _Atmosfear : The Soul Rangers_ played very well and still retained a fairly sinister vibe throughout.

if your kids want to be emotionally traumatized by a creepy vampiress and learn a lot of double entendres, then go ahead

[@IrishRay2006]

Just found that there is now an Atmosfear/Nightmare mobile app now :)

[@aaroncollins6411]

It's literally a combo of the 2004 dvd board and script containing parts of the harbingers and 1991 game

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

Including shoddy AI!

But why does she have bolts in her cheeks?

[@jessesaunders7043]

I missed this one somehow!

[@Mightymick114]

I'm in Australia and I thought they were all nightmare games and atmosphere was a spin off

[@SavageBolt]

Nightmare originated in Australia, and other places like USA, Canada and New Zealand used the same name. Outside those regions, it was referred to as Atmosfear. Then once Harbingers came around, the series was renamed Atmosfear everywhere else.

[@Xxx_EvilSmurf_xxX]

I’m into it.

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

i have no words

[@Dim4323]

And now hopefully you do atmosphere the harbingers

[@ThomasJeff1898]

And they finally did it. Look it up. It's Part 5 of Tabletop Day 2018.

[@gareth4348]

Game Hard.

[@stevenhollis1071]

I liked the nightmare games and have been able to beat them all. Too bad you all give it nothing but negative feedback.

[@Solid_Fuel]

urgh! What is this? Watch+Play? What a garbage game! Anyway, Im not mad, LRR can make any game fun to watch :D

[@thomaskirkness-little5809]

I think the idea of turning the volume up high probably made sense back when people had regular TVs without big stereos attached.

[@xavierrose8208]

Oh trust me, people who had stereos connected them to the tv.

[@legendaryseph9406]

This is supposed to be Elizabeth Bathory the Serial Killer who bathed in blood right?

[@sethlinnell2514]

She probably didn't bathe in blood that was made up after she died, but she was a serial killer and was put on house arrest in her castle for the rest of her days.

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

It’s like Jack the Ripper if he was identified

[@sdwilab]

When your are a vampire you can choose to attack the other players and you win when you transform all the other player in vampire. You can try to ask the other player to transform you in "fresh meat "and play again or be killed and eliminate for good. To sum up , You can chase or being chase

[@Thrythlind]

I think the idea is that your playing humans that are chosen harbingers of the named monsters....like you've been kidnapped and they're putting you through some sort of obstacle course for their own amusement and like if you win, then the monster you're representing wins some sort of bet.

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

Well when the gatekeeper hosts it, the story is that he is the guardian of de Chantraine, Khufu, Hellin, Gevaudan, Baron Samedi and Báthory who challenge him. If you win, then these people are released, if you lose then they remain trapped. Well that’s my view on it

[@thomaspearce3002]

I have to say out of the Nightmares this one was bad. Still it was fun to watch keep it up guys.

[@RolandTemplar]

The game Was bad?

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

The only use this game has is to laugh at the double entendres

[@scif121]

You were wrong when you claimed it was called atmosfear in Australia. I owned the game I am Australian it was called Nightmare.

[@thehammersmithcrumpetradar]

The name was changed because in good old UK, we had a show called Knightmare. And it was so 80s it hurt, so we had the name change, so we were 4 years ahead of the USA getting Atmosfear

[@alanhanna7944]

i like all the nightmare board games

[@sdwilab]

I just notice that the vampire don't have their "Vampire Cards Roleplay". 😮😮 When you become a vampire you have to roll the dice, you still playing. 🫡 Vampire need to guest what number you will rolls if it will be odd or not. Then if you guest successfully, roll the dice again. 1 take a "blood card "to your pray / 2 You can try 2 assault on your pray when its stop on X tombstone on your next turn / 3 You can attack your pray on any tombstone on your next turn / 4 Give one of your" blood card" to an other player / 5 Take a "black Rose card" to your pray and put it back in end of the deck / 6 Pick a "Fate card" if is a "Blood card" keep it to increase you are power if it isn't put it back at the end of the deck.

[@aaroncollins6411]

Those were only in certain regions, but not North America. But North America had more time cards than the other regions.
