Quoted from PanzerFreak:The Addams Family is no doubt one of the best pins of all time. However, for having a game at home I would take The Hobbit any day due to the significantly deeper and more interesting ruleset. The ruleset in Addams Family feels a bit out of date and dull when compared to modern rulesets IMO. However, it's still a fun game to play and if I had room for a very large collection I would own one.
Go for the game you enjoy best. Some people on Pinside act as Hobbit committed a crime against them lol. If the game wasn't fun it wouldn't be selling for $11k+.
Yup... for home I thought Addams got old really quick.
It's a fun game but not one I wanted to play over and over (and I owned it two or three times over the years back when they weren't stupid priced).
Hobbit is unique and deep at least. Allot of peoples issue with the game are setup related, if it's not steep enough it plays like molasses.
