Yeah Monster Lands is what I hoped it would be: "an advanced Champions of Midgard". Kickstarter also delivers a version with all wooden tokens and custom engraved dice: great!
Great review, thanks Tom Vasel. This is one of the KS games I'm most excited to get, if you think the normal components are top notch I guess you would be blown away by the deluxe ones, I can't wait to get those in my hands! The game looks gorgeous, one of the best artwork I've seen. One of the things that made me go for this one was the crazy amount of stuff it has! Irresistible for me!!
I know the artist is the person that did B-Sieged, but i noticed when you went through some of the characters, they were B-sieged characters....is this supposed to be from the same world.......Love the artist but not to reuse..but there is definitely more new than old.
And if you think about it, this is also a tower defence game like B-Sieged but done differently. I’m still waiting for my kickstarter copy of Monsterlands. Kickstarter looks amazing. But i think the game is fun for a moment but then you start to miss B-Sieged. After all, dice chucking is much more fun than dice placement ;)
Well it ended up better than B.Sieged. Shame a bunch of KS exclusives make this a game I don't have much interest in. Also it looks extremely swingy with rolling normal D6's.
Games that allow you to manipulate dice or something to that effect is great. Games that gives you rewards even when you lose is catering to snowflakes and people that believes that coming in third place in a competition is as good as the one who comes in first place and is equally deserving of a gold medal. Sure, games that does this can still be great fun but it greatly annoys me.
Congratulations Second Gate!!! Great work!!!
Amazing KS all round. One of the least experenced teams running one the best ks I seen in a while. Great stuff.

Yes same world as B-Sieged, Modhelm is one of the lands you can conquer, but it's KS exclusive. :(

Isn’t this a kind of sequel to B-Sieged?

This game reminds me of a heavier Champions of Midgard.
