Hey guys! Thanks for the video! I appreciate all the analysis! I was the lead designer on Texas Chainsaw Massacre: Slaughterhouse. I love that the two games take a different approach to the IP. The Trick or Treat game really brings you into that first movie, and as a huge fan of the movie, I can confirm they did a great job. When we were watching the film and discussing how we wanted to tackle this IP, we talked about how there is this lingering shot of a bunch of derelict cars on the Sawyers' property, and combined with all the bones, there is an implication that the family has preyed on many people before. We wanted to do a game about all of those untold prequels, hence the five scenarios with different reasons people might find themselves on the property.
Hey Aaron! Thanks so much for sharing. You did a fantastic job with the game. We've been playing the different scenarios since this video and we're loving it. These scenerios all add a different feel, which leads to lots of replayability and storytelling.
Awesome video! I grabbed Slaughterhouse a couple weeks ago and will probably pick up the other one at some point. One thing that I think is worth mentioning is the large price difference between the two ($60 vs. $30), especially with the cheaper game (Slaughterhouse) having better components (bone dice, minis).
Great review of the 2 games! Exactly what I was looking for. Im torn between the two but I think I'll be purchasing the Funko version. Overall seems to have better reviews. But I really like how well the Trick or Treat studios version ties into the movie.
Slaughterhouse sounds like a game I would love to play! I love a lot of problem-solving and taking analytical approaches, but I would seem to be for people who have the patience for that.
Yes. There are lots of options in Slaughterhouse. I (Ryan) was the Sawyer family and it caught me off guard when the crew started attacking me. But it was the best option at the moment and limited my actions.
Yes. As a fan of the original movie, the ToTS game really nails it with fan service and knowing the source material. Our son who is a big video gamer really enjoyed Slaughterhouse. It feels more like Dead by Daylight and the 1-vs-Many games he plays.
Hey gusy! Thanks for a nice video! I do have a question tho: So,at first me and my sister was looking into the Trick R Treat game, cause the way it is played, reminds us of a game we used to play when we were kids. However, after I saw your review of the Funko one i became in doubt. Therefor my question goes: My family and I arent native english speakers; I do however understand it quite well, and my family gets by english okay - we have a Scooby Doo game (Betrayle) in english, but most of the time, they get bored for reading english too much (even tho i help them translate). Which of these games would be the best suited to play? Im leaning more towards the Funko one, but I'm afraid that the reading will get them too confused
So there is minimal reading in both of these. Slaughterhouse: You'll need to read the scenerio card at the beginning of the game. Desperation cards have some text on them, and injury cards have text. ToTS game: Objective and item cards are the only things that contain text. Obviously, both rulebooks are in Enlish, but there are some good tutorial videos online for both.
@@OneBoardFamily So, I just wanted to give an update: I bought both games, because of yours review. My sister and I have have now played both. The one from Trick is easy to understand and to play - played 4 games in a row. The more you play, the more "boring" it gets - but its a great game to kill time, if you don't have that much time. Believe it or not, but one game only took us 3 minuts, since the keys and gas was close to the van. The one from Funko is totally different. We only got to play 1 game cause we were short on time. However, even though I had to make some suggestions for my sister for her movements, she ended up really liking it - she is not a big fan of strategy games, so she needs to help at new games for her to understand them. However, after we had played, I asked her to rank the games, and to my surprise she liked the one from Funko more than the one from Trick - she still likes the one from Trick. We see it as this: Trick is a great game which gets more boring if you play it many times in a row, but a great "kill time" or "the game we warmup without before playing other games". While Funko: Can perhaps be a bit boring at the beginning (if you don't know what to do), but gets more and more funny, the more you play it. So both games was totally worth it! Can't wait to show the Funko one to my game group, since they are waaaay more strategy minded :)
Hey guys, great vid. I usually play games solo, can the slaughterhouse game potentially be adapted for solo, like last night on earth? Or is it definitely a one vs many?
It seems like that would be tough to solo. One aspect of Slaughterhouse is the Sawyer family having actions that everyone else isn't aware of. You would have to adapt that in some way to make it work as a solo game.
Those games looks cool 👍 Hopefully someone make a good Friday the 13th board game made like these board games , or convert the Friday the 13th video game to a board game 🤔.
Yes. In Slaughterhouse, once you complete the objective and get away, you remove your character from the game, leaving the other characters to get away or be killed. The game ends when everyone is off the board or dead.

Yes. We have that in the review for the ToTS one and will point it out in the written piece for Slaughterhouse.
I tend to avoid adversarial games but the escalation and decision making in Slaughterhouse sound right up my alley.
I just bought the 75 movie version today. I’m definitely a fan the IP so the call back hit the nostalgia for me.
Nice!!!

I love Prosper Hall IP games, but Trick or Treat Studios seemed to nail it for me(solo mostly).

That is awesome. I have also recently been playing the TCM Video Game and was hoping the board game could capture the "chase" vibe. @@OneBoardFamily

@@OneBoardFamily Thanks. Definitely keen on the other game. Wish it came with minis. I'm in Australia, hope the retailers have them available.
Those games looks cool 👍

@greywolf7583 It would be amazing to have a good Friday the 13th game. I think it's all around the licensing issues.
@@OneBoardFamily We have a good Friday the 13th game already. It's the first scenario of Final Girl. :)
Can you leave people and betray them in the funko game or only in the trick ot treat one?
Yes. In Slaughterhouse, once you complete the objective and get away, you remove your character from the game, leaving the other characters to get away or be killed. The game ends when everyone is off the board or dead.
Watch the movie THEN play the game.😀
Absolutely. And have the soundtrack playing in the background
Nice
