Good old Talisman

Good old Talisman.. a board game, which could go on over days and in my childhood rarely found a real winner, ´cause we mostly killed each other, before anyone could reach the crown over and over again ;) So you need some time and patience if you wanted to play a session and this is in some ways is also true for the pc game. For once the game is still under constand improvement/development, as new characters and add-ons are released on a steady base, so the devs are also constantly working on bugs as well as gameplay improvements. The conversion from boardgame to pc is actually quite good and at the current state (including the Reaper, Frostmarch, Dungeon expansions) there is enough diversity to do several games, without always having the same characters/events. While especially with the AI, there are still quite a few bugs (no wonder, due to the wide possibility of actions one can take) it is working well enough, as is the multiplayer part which offers quite some possibilities, which rules the host will allow (and hopefully will soon get a save game function, as these games can have quite some duration, just like the board game). The graphics are well done, the sound is ok. So in the end i´m looking forward to the things still to come and enjoy the one or other session of Talisman (but would strongly suggest to wait on a sale for the Season pass, which brings some much needed variety).

Another Dice and Board game that bring me back many years

Another Dice and Board game that bring me back many years.... When I first moved from china to canada 20 years ago.. 4 Games catched my attension instantly. 1. Dungeon and Dragons. 2. Vampire the Masquerade 3. Magic the Garthering 4. Talisman... Those games didn't need you sit infront of a Console or Computer.. Just grab a bunch of friends and start playing. They can go on for hours and hours without tiring and great test of your interlect and luck. I learned a lot of english from those games and without them.. I would have much bigger trouble blend in to english speaking society in school and in community. Sadly years has past.. The only game I still play out of the 4 is Magic the garthering and I can only do it with a few friends whenever I go back to canada. Today my passion is in computer games. And I been collecting and playing more games then ever before... Imaging my surprise that I see Talisman for sell on steam! The day i brought this game.. is the same day that i brought season pass. This game plays exactly like how it was 20 years ago and suck up an insane amount of time each game... 6 player.. 1 board.. May the Dice God Smile upon you! 9/10 for perfect adeptation, wonderful music and even OP characters and cards!

I'll give this game a positive review when the developers finally add an undo function

I'll give this game a positive review when the developers finally add an undo function. That will help me and my game group live with all things that go wrong from unclear rules and funky UI/UX. I asked the support team about undo and they said they were worried it would be abused in public games. I've thought about that and here's my answer: just make it an option at game setup time. Boom.
