I finally picked up the game Dale. Got to say I'm loving it so far. I hope you're doing well my friend and thanks for all the great videos you've done.

I've been putting off learning this game. Finally set it up and watched a bunch of your videos. Perfectly taught! Made learning easy. Can't wait to watch some more! Cheers Dale!

Man, I can't thank you enough for this and the series, the most helpful series of videos to understand and get started.

I got into this game in a big way. Collected the first few campaigns. Unfortunately I got rid of everything and took up Marvel Champions instead, which I prefer as a solo player. But this is an absolutely fantastic game and I am glad you are making a video on it.

The leveling up mechanic does give this an edge over Marvel Champions and the fact that Arkham Horror has been famous for being brutal, I don’t expect to have a high win percentage on any of Fantasy Flights games in this world. :)

So cool. Totally forgot you were doing this!!!!! Was checking out prices last night. Gotta be light and campaign, and this is great for the lockdown. Me n the old lady stuck at home w/ juggernaut dungeon crawls. But pathfinder card or Arkham card seem easy.

Hi Dale. Thank you for this. The newest version of this game is coming out in Oct 2021. I’m using your vids to asses whether this is for me. I am impressed with your presentation, explanation, lighting, camera work, and general know-how. Can I ask, how many times have you played this game? It seems it is a time and money investment. Is this something that you would have gone “all-in” were you not a videographer? Thank you. I have subscribed.

@Gr1m Ace Fantasy Flight has 2 living card games that mechanically work very similar, this one, Lord of the Rings, and Marvel Champions. I went all-in on Marvel Champions, but it could have easily been this game too (and LOTR). Good system, lots of fun. I think going all-in on one is not a bad idea. Enjoy! :)

Dale you think this games is more difficult to deal with rules, weird interactions, timing etc than Marvel champions?

@DaletheCasualGamer

2 жыл бұрын

@Henrique Ribeiro Honestly, it's pretty much the same. Arkham Horror has quite an extensive FAQ very much like Marvel Champions. I'm still shocked Marvel Champions has all the items still open to interpretation for a game that basically on it's 3rd version (Lord of the Rings, Arkham Horror, and now Marvel Champions). Even with that said, as a cooperative game ... I think those interpretations can be made for each group to have a great game play with any of those games. I do believe the rulebook for the revamped core box does include rules revisions from the FAQ, so that was great to see. Hope that helps, and thanks for watching! :)

Hello, This game looks fun....how much replayability is in the core box? Also would I get everything I need in one core box or would I need two?

@DaletheCasualGamer

4 жыл бұрын

@Stephen Poulin If you are looking for a bunch of game play with just the core box, I think you'll get you moneys worth but the real catch is buying all the new scenario packs. Just one box is needed for 1 to 2 players. You'll only need a second box if playing 3 or 4 players, or if you want access to all cards for both decks. I'd play the core game again with others, I just wouldn't make certain decisions since I may already know the answers and "hidden" information. Hope that helps!

4 жыл бұрын

@Stephen Poulin lol ... glad you got some extra time to start the weekend! Many solo gamers put this near the top of their lists. I enjoy it ... but you can probably tell from my channel, I might enjoy another Living Card Game (LCG) a little more. ;) As with any LCG, expect the need, or desire, to keep buying more content. The scenario really gets you vested in your character and the story. I've only played it solo and two players. I play too many games, so long scenario driven games is typically a turn off, especially when trying to get the same group of players together (for me) ... but there is always exceptions. So to sum it up, it's a top rated solo/coop game and worthy of that title. Personally, I currently don't feel the need to go all-in on this one, as I'm getting everything for Marvel Champions ... so the answer for anyone else would be, do you prefer the Marvel theme or Cthulhu mythos? Hope that helps, and enjoy your early day off!!

Some packs are harder to find than others. So if you're a completionist (like me) then getting all packs for each scenario may be an issue, but getting a core set and jumping in the latest cycle shouldn't be a problem. I fear it's going to be addictive ... and drive me further insane. Just what I need. :D
