Who goes first in Mansions of Madness: Second Edition?
Fantasy Flight Games English Rules Reference, 2016
There is no set first player. In each investigator phase, the investigators each take one turn in the order of their choice.
If your rules call for a random choice, use the player picker.
Rule details
Each round has an investigator phase followed by a mythos phase run by the app.
On their turn, an investigator performs up to two actions; after all investigators have taken a turn, one of them presses the app's end phase button.
If there’s a tie
The rulebook doesn’t say. If you need a tie-break, pick a player at random.
