I like the fact that the manufacturers got the colors of the crests wrong. As a Digimon fan, it's frustrating but hilarious at the same time

[@NightClubSamurai]

I have not watched the og series since my childhood and somewhere deep in my brain I knew the colors were off

[@KazuoZex]

@@NightClubSamurai pretty sure the manufacturers used the base colors of the kids clothing for the crest color. Mimi's crest is green, but they gave her pink, cuz the girl looks like a tulip came to life xD

"Digidollars." You know, I know Pokemon has Pokedollars, but "Digidollars" just sounds like something Ned Flanders made up. "To beat this boss, you need 100 Digi-dollaridoos!"

[@NovaSaber]

"Digidollars" were mentioned twice in the show, but were a dub-induced plot hole. The first time, Joe tried to pay at a diner with "Digidollars" (which Vegiemon called "play money"), but they only accepted actual American dollars. (In Japanese, Joe tried to pay with Japanese yen.) The second time, the same diner rejected real-world money and said they ONLY accepted "Digidollars". (In Japanese, it was still the same; they only took American money.)

[@Samaru163]

I like how JWittz gets bolder in changing his brand. I remember years ago when he was worried about moving from Pokemon to general Nintendo, then he tested the waters a little bit at a time with Yu-Gi-Oh, and then just stopped asking with Digimon.

Man, what a trip this board is! Thanks for the review of it! I can take a guess about why you could get it sealed for that price, haha!

[@radiantburrito]

I remember having this and then wanting to create my own version of it. I taped a bunch of paper to some random game board and made a full board game that was, like... Maybe just a little more competent than this. I just always loved the idea of fighting against bosses in a board game as a kid but still relied on random dice rolls to create unfun user experiences. Though I was still in elementary school iirc so I mean whatever. 😂

[@megasora4]

this is the kinda of game you add home rules for. when me and my brothers used to play with our parents, we had a rule where you could step in and interrupt another players battle by fighting the player yourself, losing gave the challenged player use of your digimon for the battle and winning force a crest trade and ends the battle against the boss. it added some much needed competition and added well onto the risk/reward system.

[@callumarcadio]

I have a Digimon board game somewhere, but it's very different to this one. It's presumably an earlier version, because it's based on the Devimon arc - the board is made up of the fragmented pieces of File Island, and there's a picture of Devimon in the centre. It comes in a square box instead of a rectangular one. I don't remember much about the gameplay, I don't think I played it more than once or twice.

[@inversenexarus9152]

Sounds like an easy fix would be to print out homebrew cards. Instead of just "move to this space" and "attack boost", add a few more effects. Swap digimon with other players. Steal a crest of the same type from another player. Move another player to start of zone. Player holding this card at the end of game automatically wins against dark master (only 1 of this card). Subtract from another players die roll. Skip a turn. Make another player skip a turn.

[@stevejons7255]

It's really cool seeing you talk about this. My Mom gave this game to the kids as a Christmas present when it first came out because my Dad was out of town and it was going to be a crummy Christmas. We were all kids and had a great time. Since then we have played it every years on Christmas Eve to decide who that years Digimon Emperor is. (I'm the current emperor in case anyone was curious) We're all adults now, but it's still a time when me and my siblings actively get together, so I owe a lot to this game even if it is really bad. PS. Your copy is strangely bad quality. In mine, all the tokens fit in the holder, they are all centered, and most importantly the board is an average thickness chipboard instead of whatever that flimsy paper board was.

[@abucket14]

We played candyland way different from the raw. You would have a hand of 5 cards and draw one when it was your turn and play a card. You choose which card to play each turn, and you could only use the cards that send you to specific spaces on other players.

As someone who owns this game, I agree with you 100%. It was also pretty clear that the people who made the game didn't know much about Digimon. Maybe you should just review the Cyber Sleuth games next?

[@bootsnhopscotch]

I actually have this. I got it as a gift from my elementary school teacher and have it displayed in my room. I haven't played it once, but I thought the little Digimon chips were hella cool. As a matter of fact, my love of Digimon stemmed from this game, in a way. A substitute teacher from a previous school gave me some of those chips if I did good on my schoolwork. I never knew they were from the board game until the aforementioned gift, but ever since that day I've loved Bukamon and Tentomon and all the rest. So thanks, Digimon Board Game, for getting me hooked on a badass series.

To be honest, the more you explained it, the more sense it made...it seems like a reasonably simple concepts with nice referencing to the series. Then the ending against the final digimon is insane.

[@juliabrnssr]

Interesting concept but probably would have been better as a game for gameboy. 4:34 Also what's up with the crest colors, while they are correct, the are completely mis-matched. For example, Love is supposed to be the Pink one, not Sincerity (Which should be green).

[@NekogamiKun127]

So what you're saying is that the Digimon Board Game seems like it's good for an Adventure or 02, but actually it's much Tamer, doesn't push any Frontiers, and victories have nothing to Saver, which makes it an interesting Xros comparison with other board games.
