Description

1313 Dead End Drive is a bluffing game where you should try to conceal your identity, as well as trying to reveal the others. On your turn you are moving two of the characters on the board (could be yours and/or the others). Movement is decided by dice (you chose which dice you use for each character you chooses to move).

The game is won when either everyone is out of the mansion or when the last card (Clock Strikes Midnight) is drawn from the deck. You win by having the most moneybags (of the 20 available) of any of the players.

You are always trying to "knock off" the other heirs because as they are gone, their moneybags move down the will to the next heir in line. The board is a 3D house with several traps, which you use to get rid of the other heirs.

You can bluff by moving your opponents' characters towards the entrance or moving your own character onto the trap spaces, but without releasing it.

Quotes (from this video)
  • Ask a Board Gamer! My first question actually launches with a tragic story - i've got bad news for you Brent - i've got some bad news for you - i got bad news - Uh-oh - A fire has destroyed your entire board game collection - new stuff included - Oh no! - i know! - Oh sh*t - And you have to rebuild - i wanna know: what's the first thing you rebuild with?
  • I would start with Splendor - Dragon Strike - Citadels - Hansa Teutonica - Mysterium - Boss Monster - Kingdom Death: Monster, hands down - 1313 Dead End Drive!
  • I love it so much! I've never won a game - I have a massive amount of fun.
  • It was the first real unique board game I owned.
  • D6 is basically designed for individuals who don't know how to play Dungeons & Dragons, but it's a really simplified D&D board game version.
  • It was like mousetrap almost. You build up this elaborate scene and you trigger traps and devices... Clue to the next level!
  • I probably would start off with Scythe. I've spent so much money buying all the expansions. I've spent a ton of time going over strategy, playing with other people, teaching other people. It's a long game to get to learn if you've ever played it. I just have to get that one back.
  • It is by far the best game that I have ever played. I absolutely love cooperative gameplay.
  • I don't really like counter-operative gameplay, even though I know that nobody else ever calls it that.
  • I tried Munchkin once, and I don't want to lose my friends over a game.
  • Cosmic Encounter you want to avoid, and of course, uh, Monopoly, because everybody should avoid it at all costs.
  • Kingdom Death: Monster is probably one of the most critically acclaimed and, like, artistically inspired.
  • When you look at the miniatures and you look at the details, the time and the effort and the inspiration that goes into it is very very nice.
  • Can you still get it? - Yes, you can! They do a lot of limited print collectors models of sorts. Those are irreplaceable.
  • I don't know how I'm gonna put my kid through college since I have to buy it all again!
  • There's been a fire, and it's destroyed your entire board game collection. What game do you buy first to replenish it? - Dinosaur World.
