Very much like other simple dice games it is quick and easy to play. It is one of those games you can carry around with you if you really wanted something on the run.

I generally use this game and games like it as fillers and conversation games. Match the symbols to the cards and get the cards, each card has a point system, highest points win… that is it!!

Waiting for others to set up a different game just grab this box and go a few rounds. It isn’t meant to be a complex, in depth game of concentration, it is meant to be simple and quick with a slight Japanese theme.

I would recommend this game because it is inexpensive and fun, and if you have a few minutes to pass this is one of the dice games think about.

This game isn’t for every gamer, some find the rules shaky and complex while others pick it up with ease. It is a great game with one downfall, you really have to be in the mood to play it.

Really think before getting this game, if you love history it is a great play however if you are a stickler for history this might not be for you. The game takes you into the WWII battles which are fairly matched in my experience.

The game has been around for a while and some might find it dated, but I do suggest to give it a try at least once. Many say Memoir 44 has replaced it however I find the game mechanics different enough to enjoy them both for different reasons.

Game plays well, even with the same people however in order to keep it fresh it is better to play with a different group every time. It is slightly easier to talk a friend into playing a game about sad destruction then one might think. From the general gamer to the random friend plenty of people enjoy this game. I’m not sure if many grandmothers would enjoy this game however mine did, and asks to play when we visit.

I’m still hoping for a re-release of this game and all it original glory. My copy was sadly destroyed, I continue mourn its loss. If someone could get their hands on it, I recommend playing as much as possible. I heard there is a copy write problem with the kickstarter a couple of years ago but my fingers are still crossed. It is the dawn of dungeon crawlers as we know them today, however I find you do need a great DM or it is a little funky in playing. As I find most gaming crews have a member who generally plays DM rolls it should be a too hard.
