By now I unfortunately no longer care how amazing a CMON game might be, because I can no longer make myself support their basic company strategy: "Either pay us one year in advance via Kickstarter while bypassing your favorite local game store OR only get half of the game at retail, because the other half consists of Kickstarter Exclusives."
@nadrake19837 жыл бұрын
meh not everyone has a local shop, and at the price at retail you are still getting a great game with a lot of awesome minis. If you feel it isn't worth it you don't buy it, but the KS "exclusives" are for us who support it that way, and are deserved.

I was saddened to see that his two cons were "storage woes and sculpt similarities. I was so psyched for this game. I wanted to love it. But the game play was stagnant and lame. You had so many skills and bonuses by the end you'd lose count of your bonuses. And the monsters were just paper this by the end. They could do nothing to stop you at all. Minion waves were not even speed bumps by mid game. No reason to go back to playing it. There was no joy or any real decision making. I expected better out of the dice tower reviews.

I wasn't a fan of Zombiecide, either standard or BP, since I don't care for zombies but when I heard about Massive Darkness I jumped on the kickstarter and the only downside I've had is not backing all of it!

Rule clarification. The goblin agent should have actually had access to the weapon, because even though they don't have the weapon type on their stat, he can use it because it's a weapon. If it was a consumable potion, than no, he cannot use it.
@CaptainCodeMonkey7 жыл бұрын
Wrong. Page 24 of the rulebook: "Guardians can use Combat Equipment: the Equipment’s Combat dice are added to any Combat category (Melee, Ranged, Magic, or Defense) the Guardian already has dice in. In other words, Guardians cannot use Combat dice displayed in Combat categories they don’t already have."

We found the rulebook annoying to go through when we needed to clarify roles while playing. A lot of common stuff not in the glossery. There's also the major drawback that while the characters level quickly, the game doesn't scale adequately with player progress. Our group found that we'd do from being useless to being unstoppable very quickly, often in a single turn, and you'd never go back to the challenge of early quest play. It unfortunately feels like a game that requires house ruling if you want to maintain a sense of challenge beyond level 2. We never had to consider house ruling zombicide, but this game just gives you too much too quickly and the game itself doesn't ramp up the difficulty to make up for it. This may be a result of them wanting to add in the campaign mode, but honestly, they have additional rules for that mode, so they should have given the same consideration to the single session adventurers.

Thank you Sam for your review. I agree with the + and the -. I think this game is fantastic. Specially for me who don't have a lot of time to play. With the companion app, you can save a LOT of time and space. I also have descent, didn't play it enough because it took me too long to set up, etc. Anyway, I am happy I didn't got by kickstarter, and by the way, how do you do to be alerted when some similar games go on kick starter?

My Main Problem is, that the mobminitures are useless. They numbers of the mob are just for the lifepoints, no extra dmg no extra ability or something else, so a lifecounter would do the same. But this mechanic is like the mechanic with the roaming monster.

It's interesting how Descent (& Doom) and D&D board games get a lot of crap (cuz they're old?) from people who play the newer dungeon crawlers .... but I always have to laugh when I see the "new" combat systems of these Kickstarter games. Without descent (and the D&D series) games like massive darkness wouldn't even exist. There's nothing innovative here at all.

Just played MD phew nights ago.When in hear in reviews talking about replayability there is one point that got me wondering .I get that making different combinations among team characters,their classes and the randomness of some enemies appearance or even the randomness among treasures might add aone replayability but in the end if the game doesn't feel that good or simply is boring, tiresome or sinply juat feel one if the same those replayability factors wont be enough to get me back to table,it will feel like one of the same .Who cares for another sword when i ve seen so many ,in so many games(and i havent played that many games compare to Sam ).It will feel like evrything is repeating..

Wow, that was a bad review. Not bad made, bad not very critical. A Game that gets rediculus after level 2 is not a good game. I mean, what is fun about a big bad Monster which dies after the first hero tuching it? Don't get me wrong, I play the game and love it, but only after 5 pages of house rules from BGG. Fast leveling is og, but the RAW is just boring. Hope other videos are more critical.
