Can't stand Flux. You basically have to have a new wincon and all the cards for the wincon in your hand at once to actually have any semblance of strategy. Too random for me to like.

Also can only tolerate CAH. Annoyance at their being allowed to just rip off Apples to Apples aside, as a source of entertainment it's almost an insult to anybody who writes comedy. It is based entirely on the idea that just mashing taboos together makes comedy. For a given group, one game is about all that works well.

Betrayal at House on the Hill is fantastic, in the same school as what makes Mansions of Madness fantastic, though I do prefer co-op games that stay co-op: Arkham Horror, Forbidden Island/Desert, etc.
