Eric Lang

Eric Lang大概是目前最炙手可熱的設計師。

他設計的Dice Masters、Blood Rage在市場上反應相當不錯，最近又要跟Cmon、McVey（對，就是之前出Sedition Wars那家）合作一款新遊戲－－The Others。

The Others跟Lobotomy一樣都是走恐怖路線。後者像是恐怖電影版的Zombicide，玩家必須合作走出充滿從恐怖電影裡爬出來怪物圍繞的瘋人院。Lobotomy裡的怪物是系統產生，每個怪物都有不同的特性。

至於The Others則是類似逃出絕地，由一名玩家擔任主持人，跟其他玩家組成的英雄對抗。

BGG上的分享：

The unique mechanic of the game is the corruption track. Whenever you need to make a roll, you can increase you corruption to give you bonuses. Corruption ranges from 0 to 7. Each time you increase your corruption it gives you a bonus such as an extra die to roll, or automatic hit. But not only do you get the bonus of the current corruption level, you get everyone below it. So by the time you hit 7 corruption, you get 7 bonuses which are very powerful. BUT, if you max out your corruption, anytime you get be corrupted by a monster or mechanic that the evil player is doing you'd take a wound. When you take a wound you cover one of the bonuses you'd get on your corruption track which means you don't get that bonus anymore. Four wounds and your dead.

目前看起來就是很漂亮的模型 + Eric Lang，而這已經騙到我的Blood Rage贊助。To Back or Not To Back: That's The Question。
