I have been looking at some board games for the approaching autumn season and was narrowing it down to two: Eldritch Horror or Decent: Journeys in the DarkHas anyone one played either of these and if so which is better? Or is there something else I should be checking out instead? |

Those are two very different games that are both quite good.
Descent is basically like playing a hack and slash RPG campaign, as a board game.
Eldritch Horror is a simplified Arkham Horror, and a cooperative players vs board game.
So, really, it's about which of those appeals to you.
And if you really like the idea of Descent, there's a Star Wars themed game of the same time called Imperial Assault.

Really, out of those, pick whichever one's theme is most exciting to you and your friends. |

Key to the Kingdom
I'm totally kidding, Key to the Kingdom sucks.
