I honestly love this game. What other games out there have random modular boards? (Sci-fi or horror preferred, but will accept anything)
I'll bump you OP. I've never played Betrayal but its been discussed a lot in my group.

Something like Descent maybe? There are more games similiar to it, altought these are more RPG-lite than boardgames
>>46504783
Look up Transylvania; Curses and Traitors
>>46504783
It probably isn't what you're looking four, but Dungeoneer was dungeon exploration with a deck of cards, it's PvP but can be turned co-op easilly enough and has several expansions.
It's a lot slimmer that Betrayal though.

the D&D board games

I was actually working on a re-skin of Betrayal that was going to be more like an Indiana Jones type thing, where the players were archaeologists tomb-raiding looking for lost treasures.
Hang on, let's see what I had done...here's mostly a list of the changes, as well as 3 completed adventures, sort of a proof-of-concept.

And here's some of the cards that I made for it, using the Magic Set Editor. How they work is mostly explained in the document above.

You want me to design the visual of the cards? Not the images, the MSE templates. I download the pdf, with all the cards and rules

Not op but bumping because I've been wanting a good dungeon crawl board game for a while. Betrayal is fun the first few times but it never feels like any of the events are very balanced. I tried playing the Temple of Elemental Evil board game but that was just way too fucking hard. I don't know what I expected from the Temple of Elemental evil, but it wasn't hard in a fun way I guess.

Here's a favorite of mine, OP. Nice and modular, quick to learn, and lots of ways to expand or mod.
Hell, we made it into a one-shot adventure before. Good times.

Betrayal is neat, but I like the exploration before the haunting begins way more than the actual haunting, and the tokens and shit are all horrifically annoying to set up, and some scenarios are just unbalanced as fuck.
That said if you want to try some modular board games, look into Forbidden Island or Forbidden Desert. FI is super easy to set up and play and doesn't bog down in super specific scenario rules or a billion tokens. FD is similar but a little more complex.

I just noticed this on GW's website (Haven't been following 40k for about a year now, haven't heard of this), Do you think this will be similar?

That's pretty cool. I wanted to do the same thing, but refluff Betrayal on a sci-fi/horror bent. You're one of six astronauts sent to explore a space station that went dark. As you work your way through the seemingly empty station's three decks, strange things happen until you discover the reason why everyone is gone.
Scenarios would range all over the sci-fi scale, taking homages from Alien, Predator, Event Horizon, and so forth.
