Betrayal Legacy Review

Decade after decade your families have experienced terrors and dealt with otherworldly horrors. Each family has its black marks, members who turned against the rest and gave in to their inner evil, yet only one thing remains consistent; The House.

As you play through the game you will encounter new mechanics as well as twists in the story that will change the rest of the game. As this is the case, it is difficult to talk about the game without spoiling things that could happen, things that will happen, or things that will not happen. We are going to try to be as spoiler-free as we can but beware there will be some light spoilers below.

If You Like Battleship, You Might Like...

Battleship is a classic two-player board game of nautical combat. Originating as a pen-and-paper game around World War I (possibly even sooner, as it seems it was based off of much older games), Battleship was published in its pen-and-paper form by a few different companies up until 1967 when the plastic version that we all know and love was first published. Battleship is a simple guessing game where you secretly place your ships on a grid and you take turns taking shots (guessing grid positions) and seeing if you hit. Probably most famous for the phrase ‘You sunk my battleship!’ I do not think I have ever met anyone who did not know of the game.
