Personal Thoughts on Dubious
Dubious offers a unique blend of deduction and storytelling that can be enjoyable for players looking for a party game with a fantasy twist. While the game may not have extensive replay value, it can be a fun addition to game nights with friends. The build quality is decent, and the artwork adds to the immersive experience. However, the pricing and availability of the game may vary, so it’s worth checking for deals on both new and used copies. Alternatives to Dubious include similar deduction games like “Secret Hitler” or “Avalon: The Resistance.” Ultimately, Dubious is worth trying for players who enjoy interactive storytelling and social deduction games, but those looking for more strategic depth may want to skip it.
