Djilly –
This is a really great and super exciting family adventure board game that very neatly alludes to the essence of D&D games.
The game is very nicely presented with lots of cardboard accessories and colourful event and monster cards. A number of plastic accessories (4 characters and stands) are included was well as 4 20-sided dices and a 10-sided dice. The character and monster stands are brilliant in particular how they allow you to keep track of the hit points. This set up makes it quite easy for younger players to get acquainted with the D&D style of playing. The game is advised for players of 10-years or old, but our youngest at 7 absolutely loves it and is one of the most fanatic players at the table.
The instructions are brief and very clear and take you about 10 to 15 minute to go through. You just got to make sure that you sort the 4 groups of monsters and event cards that belong to each scenario and keep 3 of those apart.
The game lasts about an hour. And the few times we played it were full of excitement. Compared to D&D the emphasis is more on fighting and slaying monsters but that can be done in a small variety of ways and with lots of tools/upgrades. In fact, being able to upgrade you character in a simple manner throughout game is quite appealing. Despite the many rounds of fighting there are nice quizzes and challenging intermezzo’s as well. On the one hand its a shame that only 4 scenarios are included, but then again even if you play one twice the event s and outcomes will be very different.
I’ve been fascinated by D&D games since the late 70’s, tough I never had any others to play with. Now my family is gradually getting a hang of fantasy role play games through these board game D&D adaptations. We like to play Dungeon and Wildwood as well. I’ve also bought the D&D Wrath of Ashardalon, but that still is a little too demanding for our youngest
