The Stifling Dark - How to Play & Preview - Boardgame Brody

[@hecatesson]

I have been following this on Facebook for a while now and so excited that video coverage is coming out on it. I just got into playing hidden movement games with Whitehall Mystery and when I saw this I was drawn to it. Looking forward to seeing more on this!

[@MeepleMountain]

Yes. This can be a great system to play through different stories. Fans probably can even create their own. So I’m excited to see how it progresses. I actually didn’t know there was a Whitehall mystery game. I’ll have to check that out, it is a reimplementation of letters from white chapel which I have played.

Great overview! The storyline and scenarios sound really exciting. Can’t wait to get my hands on this!

[@MeepleMountain]

Yeah, makes me want to make my own scenario.

[@nicswie]

Thanks for explaining so good and comprehensive!

[@EmanB830]

Man, i seen this at gen con and didn't get a chance to demo it. Awesome video and i think i will definitely be backing it when it drops on kickstart

[@MeepleMountain]

Yeah, it’s a keeper.

Thank you for the video

hmmm...🤔 Pretty sure "Stifling" is pronounced with a Long i like it's root word, Stifle. The pronunciation used here would make me thing the root word was Stiff, which I am pretty sure that is not the image they were going for here.

[@MeepleMountain]

Yeah. Everyone has let me know I mispronounced it. I know now!

[@krikrou100]

Looks great! Too bad there is no possibility for a 2 player game mode.. yet?

[@MeepleMountain]

I mean someone could play as 2 different people….?

[@krikrou100]

@@MeepleMountain Yes that's actually what I was thinking right after I posted the question..!

[@patcon314]

The Kickstarter now says 2-5.

[@krikrou100]

@@patcon314 Yes ;) And I backed it!

We're super late to the party here, but you got it! We did exactly what Brody mentioned (and what other similar games have done) to add in a 2-player version - the investigator player will control two characters, and the rest of the rules will play the same as a 3-player game. We know there are lots of people that want a solo version as well, and while that's not something we'll have for the Kickstarter it's certainly something we're thinking about. Thank you for the support!
