Flying Frog

I've been reading a bit about board gaming recently, and it seems to be the consensus that Flying Frog games tend to have a lot in common in the gameplay department. A friend recently picked up Last Night on Earth and I picked up Fortune and Glory. Do they have similarities in gameplay? For people that haven't played Flying Frog games before, is LNoE less complex/complicated? Should we play that one a few times to get comfortable in the system before moving on to Fortune and Glory (which has a ton of chits and a long rule book)?

    I can't stand LNoE, so I've avoided playing other Flying Frog games because I've also heard they're similar.

    Just as a small suggestion, we do have a thread devoted to board games here that this thread and your TtR thread might be better served as posts in.

    I would say Last night is a much easier game to pick up and learn since its all about accomplishing a task if your the human player and all about Braaaaiiiins if your the zombie. Though I think just looking over the rules for fortune and glory its more like Touch of evil but all have a very similar feel and play for sure.
