Reception

Matt Williams reviewed Black Morn Manor for Imagine magazine, and stated that "The rules, only four sides long, are written with a dry, black humour. However they are not as clear as they are concise. The order of card play Is ill-explained, with the rules contradicting instructions on most cards. Further, as the rules stand, the haunted room may never enter play; thus the game may last forever. Both these points have intuitive solutions, but mar what is otherwise an enjoyable game."[2]

Kevin Ross reviewed Chill: Black Morn Manor in Space Gamer No. 76.[1] Ross commented that "This is a tough genre to work in, especially in the area of boardgames [...] Pacesetter has done a pretty reasonable job with Black Morn Manor, and so far it appears to be the best of the horror boardgames."[1]

Reviews
gollark: LyricLy has cat?
gollark: Maybe it's GTech™ world space-time rotators?
gollark: Didn't you say something about blood sugar? Maybe you should check that.
gollark: Touchscreens are to some extent the enemy of mankind. However, due to financial/phone-market constraints I have not been able to attain a phone with a hardware keyboard.
gollark: I would discriminate against all people who didn't discriminate against themselves.
