Cryptid Board Game, 10 years

Clever game. Not difficult to understand. But, have to think about spatial relationships on the board to win. It is a fun game.

Love this game! So much fun with a small group of friends. I could play this game for hours. Requires some thinking and strategy which I love.

Fun game! Differently have to play with those who can read. Not for younger kids for that reason

Really fun and interesting game, but sometimes you run out of pieces and there's no easy way to continue playing.

Simple and fun deduction game that anyone can learn and enjoy racing to find the one correct spot on the board.Pros:-Quick and easy game setup.-Simple deduction as a race makes out thinking opponents fun and exhilarating.-Only two options per turn makes turns easy yet very important. (either try and figure out one persons clue or possibly give away your clue in hopes to find multiple clues and possibly winning the game)-Game allows players to be tricky and hide their clue as long as possible the more you understand the game.-Limitless combinations of game setups create fresh puzzles every experience. (online website creates random setups for you)-Perfect amount of game time ranging from very quick (game ended in 2 minutes after a very lucky guess) to about 30 mins max to figure out the puzzle.Cons:-Can bring some AP during turns, thinking maybe bring in a sand timer to limit player turns time.-Someone can win on a lucky guess but still ends up being a fun memory and doesn't feel like a waste of time because the games are light and quick.Overall well worth the time and money to play and experience something like this with anyone and everyone.P.S. Hopefully the designer is going to complete the two player variant soon like he's stated on the BGG forum.

Excelent game, super fun!

First of all, this game is a great quality, and well made all around. The wooden pieces are so fun to place on the board and very well utilized. The board pieces themselves are thick and durable.The game itself is a better version of Clue, but there is so much more to keep track of for a group that wants that extra challenge! And the fact that a player can walk away from the table, miss what happened, and come back to find all the information on the board is excellent! And if a player guesses wrong, they can keep playing! Just a lovely game!The cons are that the complexity of trying to solve a game could limit certain players. Luckily there is two "modes" of normal and hard. But if you plan on playing more than one game I would stick to normal mode so your brain doesn't melt trying to remember all the possibilities

I really enjoy this game. I have played more than a dozen times and sometimes I feel like I'm actually getting better at it. haha. Not winning does not affect my enjoyment of the game at all though. It's crafty little deduction game in the vein of CLUE, but without all the dumb rolling dice and moving around a board just so you can ask questions. You want to ask someone about their clue. You can do it! Ask about anywhere. Ask anyone. Make deductions. All without artifical restrictions that are only there to slow down a game. Cryptid is fun and thinky, but not so long that you can't get in two or three games with your pals in an evening. The only complaint (and its a complaint many people online have) is those stupid game piece colors. They're just too similar. It's the one blemish in an otherwise fantastic little game.
