Strong review as expected from Hungrygamer. Have you seen the new dungeon tiles? They look amazing. We found that playing with 4 players evens out the randomness.
I have only seen them on the GF page! How long does a 4 player game take?
@@HungryGamerReviews The fastest was around 2,5 hours. But that was after getting used to the flow and the rules.
I bought D&D books for my son a couple years ago and we just couldn't get started. Character generation was fun but, even though I'd played in the 80's, we couldn't muster the patience to figure out how the newer edition worked (and I've never DM'd). And now they've come out with a new edition. Can't keep up. We may hunt for a DM to run a 5e game for us later but, for now, I feel like Pericle will get us moving on an adventure. The software DM is really what sold me. Can't wait to see the look on his face when it arrives!
I hope you report back!!!
The Mensa game list is rapidly becoming by must buy game list. Didn’t know about the expansion! Glitter ducks! 🎉
I don't always play with the modular board, but I always add the glitter ducks
At minimum, it’s really cute. Just got to get your ducks in a row.
i see what you did there!
Great points made throughout! The fact that the loot defines the makeup of the character each game, and then they are essentially re-made each dungeon is too me a fresh new mechanic. Mind blowing a bit at first, but I really appreciate it.
Wander does the same thing with character creation as well sort of. You are mostly your loot, but this one has perma-upgrades, that one has game based upgrades
Two games that will remain in my collection forever and expanded on whenever offered. Love each of them for different reasons and I'm glad I can't choose between the two which I like better.
It was hard to finally choose. But space demanded it
@@HungryGamerReviewswhich won out?
Would really like to see more of the game and less of your mug
Would really like to get more of a useful comment and less of your snark. But here we are. Go watch the playthrough video then.
I got this because of your first video of this game. Currently, my cat is sleeping on the box. 😛 BTW, _roguelike dungeon crawl_ does mean procedural generation of the dungeon, enemies and loot. Also features exploration, combat and looting.
Hungry tested cat approved. So I DID know what it meant! 😂
@@HungryGamerReviews Yes, you did. Another fact: they're called _roguelike_ because of the 70's computer game "Rogue". (I didn't know that until I looked up the definition of _roguelike,_ even though I played "Rogue". Hey, it was 45 years ago.)
You're 100% spot on! Using D10's is a recipe for disaster, the loot feels like garbage cycling, immunity systems are always dull, and the classes are not really classes. Overall the game felt like a chore to play.
Thanks for your thoughts! I can't recall cause my first preview was years ago now but one of the first people I played w bounced off it just as hard as you!
@@HungryGamerReviews Its a shame really. The developer had some great ideas, but it feels like it lacks playtesting.
@@user-fr1ys2wn4t well, I don't know that I would say it lacks playtesting. There is a ton of stuff in there that was clearly dialed in. I think he just likes the swing. Nothing about it seems haphazard, and believe me when I say I have played unplaytested stuff many a time!
@@HungryGamerReviewsThere's swingy and there's plain silly. 40 minutes of hitting nothing does not seem like a game that went through a lot of testing imho 😅
One of my favourite dungeon crawlers, I can't wait to see what else is new in the next expansion!
same here
I haven't gotten to see the expansion, other than some of the new characters!
What a great review! Thank you for your time and your opinion on the game! Kind regards from one of the game designers! 😁
Thanks for watching!!! Thank you so much for sharing it
Era
HA!
I see what you did there!
Great review. I've had this for a long time and never really got myself to play it. Someday. (Like so many others)
its worth it once you dig in.
Thank you William. It´s a really cool video! And I really appreciate you made it although it it is not your normal cup of tea ;-) As you mentioned the solo mode, there indeed IS a real AUTOMA that really plays other players... Cheers my friend!
I did not realize there was a real solo!!! Well, that is not fair, I did realize that when I looked at the campaign
Gotta say: combo of hungry and white castle makes one think, "when did they start serving matcha tea?"😂
I see what you did there!!! 😂😂😉
first
Dang. Beat me again
Very interesting prototype, maybe subbuteo style flicks would be more accurate!
You mentioned the finite resources... but there are recharge packs, printable replacements, and an app for scratchers. Plus replacement stampers.
Of course there are! Just getting ahead of the complaint on that one!
Thank you for the How to Play!
Thanks for noticing all the details: chonky cardboard thickness, minis in a retail edition, bookmark factions, cylinders in space, creepy space bug (aka galactic kraken), all of it fitting in the base box and much more!
Great preview! I have been seeing so many adverts for this game, I had to go see what it's all about
On the box they said 1 session is 2h+30min/players, it's true ? The game session look like to much long, like 6h for 2 players games.
well, if you play all the chapters back to back it can get quite long, but saving your game is really easy
@@HungryGamerReviews and for just 12 days in game, how many Times?
@@sebleshah9712 you play three times
@@HungryGamerReviews yes it's 3 sessions for 1 campain. I means how many hours for 1 session ?
Thanks for this great review. I'm curious to get your thoughts on the rest of the story. Did it keep you entertained til the end? Thanks!
I have not finished it yet, but yes, I still have been really entertained
Thanks for the tour, Will. :)
most welcome
$30 on minimarket better that black friday sale, u make it sound so tempting ...but i haven't even gotten regular core worlds and expansions to the table 🤔
Good deal!!
Added to the To Buy List!
Live now!
Glad you did this review. I’ve had my eye on this one.
It's super cute
first
🪱
Beat me to it!
Chomp chomp
Ah, a game for me. I just backed all four of Galen's Games Mint Tin Series.
Woah big spender!
Thanks, Will!
Of course
ah this is tales!
Yes it is!
this is not Tales from.
No one said it was
I agree with the point SO MUCH about having a game that comes with standees to start. I hope other publishers are taking note. I got it to see if I like it, and if I go crazy loving it I can look into figures. But overall, for me, gameplay is more important than minis. I watched this, then played the game some, and watched it again. I agree with all of the points. I did not juggle everything new with the initiative board right away from Fall of the Spire, but I will keep at it. I am also trying to let go of my usual feeling of wanting the play the game exactly as intended, and just have fun with it. It is a lot of stats to juggle, as noted. And when do I transfer day and night with leadership token? Can I swap weapons mid battle? I still do not remember, but I get going and I am having fun again.
Over time I have become a much bigger fan of making changes to fit what you like!
Sleeve kings had some reasonably priced metal coins on their last crowd funding… neoprene mats when there are single cards that have to be removed from the middlish of the board.
Wasn't aware sleeve kings did campaigns on ks
thanks for the review! i was looking for a game to play in October and this list helped me!
Which one?
So stoked for this one! So so glad to hear the positivity!
Hope you love it!!
Excellent! Thanks. -Toby

Hey man! I was one of the cheaters last giveaway... I didn't get the difference between being a subscriber and a follower on TH-cam. I had no ill intent when I did. Thanks for another giveaway!
I'll join the next one :)
Thanks for learning and owning up! There will actually be another one this quarter possible
This made me genuinely excited!!! I cannot wait, I love Too Many Bones and this confirms so much I love about the system! Cannot wait!
Hopefully yours delivers sooner rather than later then!
sounds incredibly expensive. skyrim board game is amazing, and i have it. pass.
It is certainly expensive. Glad you have the other that you love!
I like that card organizer! I’d love to have a couple of those for other games.
Yeah it's amazing
