So fun!
I absolutely love the design of this game! It takes a second to read over the rules and understand because you actually work together and not against each other. But, once you learn the rules the game is super easy to play!

LOVE this game
We are still learning how best to try and win the game but I love that you can play this game with 2 people and it still be fun and challenging. We have not yet played with 5 people or the extra monsters but am ready for that challenge whenever! Would highly recommend this game and we talk about it with our friends and family alot in the 2 weeks that we’ve had it.The only thing I wish was built a little better or quality wise is the candle card deck. Hopefully they will do expansions for this game or a better candle holder in the future.

Very good! If there was a second expansion I would buy that too.
This expansion explodes the base game’s capacity for chaos and strategic problem solving. Me and my friends played with all the monsters in both packs, and assortment of keys, and all the tiles. There were more tiles than the stack could hold, but the chaos was so fun we played the same set up another three times.

Great game
Unlike a lot of other games out there, this is a cooperative game – players need to work TOGETHER in order to win. It can be a little stressful when someone else sees something wrong with your next move and shouts out “NOT THAT WAY!”, but I think that half the equation for these games is learning to communicate with the people around you and strategizing together on what the best move for each player would be.However, this game is a little pricey, so I recommend saving up for it, or asking for it for a birthday or the holidays.

Fantastic game. It’s easy enough to understand the basic gameplay premise and the additional features to gameplay don’t over complicate the game but make it more fun and challenging.

Lots of fun!
The Night Cage is a lot of fun and has great replay value. Have been playing regularly with a friend and we both enjoy the fact that it is a co op board game and is fairly difficult to win. The random tile placement format gives a new experience every time which adds to it’s replay value. Would definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys difficult or horror themed board games.

This game is well organized, easy to learn, and the pieces are quite physically appealing. Different difficulty modes make for lots of replay. Not too difficult to win the game. It is a co-operative game and can also be played in solo mode. I’ve brought this to my board game meet up a few times and everyone had fun playing it.

Este juego es algo extraño de explicar, no en sus reglas (las cuales están bien explicadas) sino en como te hace sentir. Logra transmitir bastante bien una sensación opresiva y en la cual te cuestionas si lo mejor es seguir avanzando con la posibilidad encontrarte con algún ser sobrenatural hostil y ser atacado o quedarte quieto esperando a que tu vida se esfume. Si se combina con la banda sonora (que se encuentra en Spotify), el ambiente se vuelve aún más tenso.Bastante recomendado para personas que les gusten los juegos cooperativos con mecánica de suspenso/terror, o los que les gusten los juegos de laberintos dinámicos.Se recomienda jugar con 4 personas, pero también hay reglas para jugar desde 1 a 5 personas.La re-jugabilidad es bastante buena, ya que contiene un buen número de variantes con la cual puedes ir volviendo el juego más difícil de manera gradual, hasta el punto en el que puede hacer sufrir a todos los jugadores (pero es algo que decides, no algo que el juego te imponga).Punto a favor, es que en Spotify puedes encontrar el soundtrack oficial para colocar mientras juegas (se amplifica la atmósfera si utilizas un buen equipo de sonido).Sobre la calidad, puedo decir que todos los componentes tienen la calidad suficiente que te puedes esperar por un juego de tal precio, aunque la caja no tiene divisiones para colocar los componentes, tampoco es algo grave.Las reglas del juego vienen completamente en inglés, por lo que recomiendo que quien vaya a ser el organizador de las partidas, sepa inglés o se aprenda las reglas. También se pueden encontrar explicaciones en español en YT, pero recomiendo se consulten previo a jugar, ya que puede ser algo tardado hacerlo durante una partida, y mata la atmósfera.En general, un juego bastante sólido desde la calidad de los componentes, como la temática de juego.Un juego que todo entusiasta de los juegos de mesa debe tener en su biblioteca.
