Description

In Hostage Negotiator, you play thepart of a law enforcement agent responsible for negotiating the release of hostages taken by an unscrupulous figure hell-bent on having hisor her demands met.
Each turn in the game represents a conversation between you and the hostage taker. You'll play cards and roll dice to increase conversation points, decrease the threat level, and release hostages. Hostage Negotiator uses a unique "hand-building" mechanism that puts cards you purchase directly in your hand for next turn rather than leaving you wondering when the cards will show up like in deck-building games.
In Hostage Negotiator there are multiple paths to victory, but the hostage taker has other plans. Will you try to calm him and get him to surrender? Will you stall and bide your time before sending in the team for a major extraction? How many hostages will you save? These are many of the exciting decisions you will make in a game of Hostage Negotiator!

Good base game - but Final Girl is better
This game runs on the same "core" as the game "Final Girl" - but this game came first, and it definitely shows.

You are a hostage negotiator trying to rescue victims from an abductor. On your turn, you play cards, roll dice to find how successful they are, and apply the effects - which could be to gain conversation points, lower or raise the threat level, save victims, and so on. The dice have 3 blank sides, 2 success sides, and 1 where you can discard cards to succeed. After your turn, you use conversation points to buy cards, and then the abductor turns over a Terror card where generally bad things happen. If you don't win by the time you run out of Terror cards (or victims...) then you've lost.

It feels initially like the game is very random, but as you play and learn the game, you learn how to exert some control over your turn. This is definitely a game and series that rewards experience and learning how to play.

The ruleset for this game was polished in Final Girl, which is kind of a 2nd edition of the game with a different theme, and also a map to move around in. Most of the time I see myself preferring to play Final Girl, however Hostage Negotiator has the benefit that it plays in a third to half the time, as there's just less going on in a game, so it definitely has a place on the shelf alongside.

Un bon jeu pas fait pour moi
J'ai jouer 4 partie de ce jeu et j'ai perdu patience. Toute les actions et carte se résolve avec un jet de dé et si tu es pas chanceux tu peux échouer ta mission. J'ai même une partie qui allait bien et qui a échoué sur un jet de dé qui a tout changé et après les cartes ont eu raison de moi. Très frustrant et pas fait pour moi, je préfère de loin les jeu avec une stratégie ou une gestion de la chance, pas un jeu où les dé dicte mon avenir.

Dure, mais....
Voici un jeu solo que j'aime jouer. Il est dure à souhait et avec une partie de chance qui peu être frustrante. Le jeu reste en soit un bon défi. La qualité du contenue semble bien et assez durable pour une longévité assez bien. Si vous aimez les jeux solo je vous le conseille sans hésitation. Alors bon jeu et bonne partie. Merci!

Pas facile mais très plaisant
Je dois avouer qu'en fesant des recherches sur les jeux à jouer solo, ce jeu revenait à chaque fois donc je me suis dit que ca devait valoir la peine. Oui, ca vaut la peine mais il faut être patient car c'est quand même difficile mais super plaisant a jouer.

Merci.

Fun Game
This may not be a good choice for completionists as it seems to have about a dozen expansions. However, if you want a game that creates a nice puzzle to work through, this is an excellent game. Be aware this is a solo game for one player.

Wow!
Quelle belle surprise! J'en suis seulement à environ 5 ou 6 sessions mais pour l'instant j'adore je jeu! Il y a un élément de hasard, qui pourrait être frustrant pour certain, mais qui fait partie de la stratégie que l'on doit mettre en place pour gagner. Set-up rapide, sessions de 20 à 30 minutes. Facilement transportable. J'en suis au point de regarder pour les expansions.

Ze JEU solo !
Voici le jeu solo par excellence. Mise en place rapide, un vrai sentiment d'urgence et de pression donne une superbe immersion. Faut pas être allergique au hasard. Doit être dans la ludo de tout joueur solo !

Un jeu solo à essayer
Très bon jeu en solo. La mise en place est rapide et les mécaniques de jeu sont simples. Il y a beaucoup de lancée de dés et donc un grand élément de chance, cependant il est possible de mitiger les mauvais lancés de dés. Vous avez un 30 minutes devant vous pour jouer, essayez ce jeu!

Jeu solo
Un petit jeu qui se joue très rapidement, en solo, pour les soirées tranquille à la maison. Pas tellement mon genre mais je l'ai offert en cadeau à un ami qui aime les jeux decks building et il a adoré.
