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: Have you *asked* people this? That seems like a weird response.
gollark: You have to look at the number of possible outcomes *which you're interested in*, and their probability.
gollark: = 4/8 = 1/2
gollark: P(3 heads) is just 1/8, P(2 heads) is 1/8 * 3 = 3/8 (there are 3 outcomes (HHT, HTH, THH) producing it and they each have 1/8 probability), so add those.
gollark: The probability of 2 or more heads is the probability of 2 or 3 heads.
