Patreon https://www.patreon.com/tabletopupgradesIn this episode of 'Twenty Minute Tabletop,' host Tom discusses three board games that offer memorable experiences but are not necessarily keepers for long-term collections. He reviews 'Betrayal at House on the Hill,' highlighting its immersive haunted house exploration but critiquing its mid-game rule complexity and player elimination. 'Cash 'n Guns' is praised for its quick, entertaining rounds with foam gun standoffs, providing laughs and a memorable first play, despite limited replay value. Finally, 'Funemployed' is described as a humorous, card-based job interview game, great for a single play but potentially anxiety-inducing for some players.
