Anyone play this? I was browsing BGG and Charlie Theel's comment on it spiked my interest. But...I can't tell from others' writeups.

I have a review coming so I've kind of refrained from talking about it much. It's probably the best game I've played in the past few months. If I eventually do a best of 2014 it will be up there with Warfighter, Fire in the Lake, and Sons of Anarchy.

When you do review it, I'd ask that the exclusive KS content be... excluded.

I'm very interested in the game, but more than a bit pissed off at the huge chunk of content that is no longer available because of Kickstarter fuckery.

I've been looking at this myself, it looks cool and I've thought about asking for a review copy but yeah...when half of the game's content is locked up in Kickstarter crap, that's very discouraging.

But hey, look...you can buy it all for $200 from a second hand seller...phhht.

They sent me a review copy a couple weeks ago of the retail edition, so no Kickstarter content. I have seen the Kickstarter content in person and it adds a lot, but it's simply variety, not stronger quality. The KS content is a mental hurdle for sure, but the core game is phenomenal. It should stand up to 30-40 plays for a normal gamer (more if you put some distance in time between plays). They already have expansions in the works.

Tom Vasal mentioned that he will have a review up this week for Fallen. I have the kickstarter edition and the game is a lot of fun. There's some thematic disconnect because the monster the overlord throws at you has nothing to do with the challenge you read off the story cards, you don't actually fight the monster. Aside from that the game runs very smoothly and it has a nice choose your own adventure feel mixed in with a dice game that lets you chuck a handful of dice. The game usually takes around an hour to finish.
