Avalon Hill Betrayal Evil Reigns in The Wynter's Pale The Yuletide Tale Expansion | Ages 12+ | Requires Betrayal at HOTH 3rd Edition to Play

This is a nice expansion for a great game. It adds even more excitement and variety to a system that is already packed.

Amazing expansion we had a lot of fun

My son participates in a board game club at school. They enjoy playing these games where you build on as you go, which is what betrayal is like. I bought him this extension pack for his birthday and it was a surprise that he was super excited about and couldn’t wait to bring to his club. Highly recommend. Great strategy game.

If you’re a fan of Betrayal at House on the Hill, then this is a good addition to your collection. The plastic components are pretty good quality too.

TLDR: these expansions aren't like Widows walk from 2nd ed. They are good add-ons don't add much to the game, it's more like playing a heavily limited separate game you use the base game to play with. I have been a fan of Betrayal for quite some time ever since I was introduced to it some 8+ years ago. The thing I loved about Betrayal 2nd edition and its expansion Widows Walk is the way it adds to the game without sacrificing the original game. Widows Walk added more items, omens, events, rooms, and 50 more haunts that can be played alongside the base game and it was fantastic. When I got these expansions for 3rd ed I was super excited because I thought that surely Wizards of the coast would do the same with these expansions, I was fine with the lower amount of items events omens, and rooms, I genuinely thought that we could play the base game with the 5 new haunts and characters like widows walk. turns out that's not the case. When you play the expansions, you are limited to 1 of 5 haunts from the expansion only, you cannot get a haunt from the base game, which means that if you wanted to playhtest the new characters with the original haunts the game gives you, you cannot. the same goes for the items, events, omens and events the expansions add. You also cannot play both expansions together. you either play Yuletide and its 5 Haunts, or you play Werewolf Expansion and its 5 Haunts, or you play the base game. For me, this is kind of a let down With all that being said though, the theme of the expansions are great, there a lot of lore and even comic books that are a nice addition as well. all the haunts I've played so far are fun. the expansions are priced very well in my opinion but i don't think i would have bought them if I had known that they weren't so inclusive with one another.

Bought it as a gift

Love it

I believe it could have had a bit more content, but it arrived perfect and with everything needed. Even when not using the Werewolf scenario you can use the character from the box. The basegame is already unbalanced as it is, so having 7 players in game does not mess with it if you scale for 1 more step.

Incredible addition to Betrayal, now can playat Christmas with a seasonal twist.

[NOT WRITTEN BY AI] The content is great with nice new minis, character cards, and fun new themed haunts. The quality is the same high standard of the base game with top notch writing of the new haunts and a dark christmas them. That said, you cannot add this in to the base game and play the whole thing together, at least not completely. You can use the new characters (before they turn evil) with the base game, but the haunts are entirely separate and there's only 5 new ones so you are likely to get through them quite quickly. That said, it's still a great variant of the amazing base game so worth it if you love that as much as we do.

Made a good gift

It's not really great value unless you get it on sale. It is just a short module, two minis and a couple of tiles. I don't know why I thought there was an extra map but I am a little disappointed.
