Thanks for the comment!<BR/><BR/>Jeff: I agree that LNoE captures the feel of zombies better than any game previously. And I had NO idea that LNoE beat out Arkham Horror as your favorite horror game. That was quite surprising to me. And yeah, multiple plays is a must.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09663408988272116822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7288246453268952191.post-48637130003145323302008-03-19T03:32:00.000-07:002008-03-19T03:32:00.000-07:00LNoE is not my *favorite* game, that's Diplomacy. ...LNoE is not my *favorite* game, that's Diplomacy. It is, however, by far my favorite Zombie game. Zombies! is fairly mediocre, although even easier to introduce to non-gamers, but frustrating, Mall of Horror is too encouraging of antagonism amongst all the players, I much prefer the competitive nature of LNoE. No other Zombie game is really worth mentioning, honestly. It is also my favorite "horror" game, narrowly beating out Arkham Horror, although we'll see if Kingsport Horror changes that. <BR/><BR/>This is primarily because of length of play. It is possible to get in 2, 3 or even more games of LNoE in before you could finish even a single game of AH. On a single game level, I greatly enjoy AH more than any non-Diplo game, but when length of play is considered, I would say that LNoE is my second-favorite boardgame to date. Being able to get in multiple plays matters.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7288246453268952191.post-79539927797089861712008-03-18T00:08:00.000-07:002008-03-18T00:08:00.000-07:00I totally agree.

It's something more than the move around a board repeatedly a million times, it allows the gamer a level of freedom and the outcome can (and usually is) different every time. It's not like any game I've played previously, and I'm not just trying to sound like Larry King.<BR/><BR/>Anyways, I really liked the visual elements with this post. They and their captions really added to the review and the overall appearance of the post.<BR/><BR/>Great stuff.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16017556567214650599noreply@blogger.com
