Love the video!! Amazing that they striked that balance of still making it feel like HoMM3 and keeping it playable, without making it overly complex and directly replicating the game version. Definitely a buy
Magic cards can be played only before activating players unit card. According to this: 11:45 - player cannot use magic before defending. 14:45 - cannot use magic arrow on couterattack (this is not activation). Magic arrow is technically not adding hits to unit's attack - it is done before attack and it can e.g. target different unit.
Thank you, that was a very clear and thorough explanation of the rules. It seems to be a fairly significant streamlining of the computer game but it keeps most of the core ingredients. It’s hard to say if that’s enough to preserve the pure joy of the original game but I think personally I would really like to try it out.
The art work is as pretty as her nails. ; ) I do however think this is a great 2 player game. I can't imagine doing 4 players and everyone has to wait half an hour for their turn.
Hey Asia, nice explenation of the rules, the game seems really interesting! However there is a mistake in 11:26. I belive you get exp after whole encounter, not every time You kill the unit.
Thanks for the overview of gameplay. Looks like a lot of fun! The deck building aspect seems like a great way to streamline the RPG aspect into a board game. Can’t wait!
Very useful review/play through! Can't say the game system appears very elegant. Seems like a complex mashup of minigames which had led to rules and component sprawl.
Thank you for this preview. Do you have informations from the designers about the possibility of a solo or coop mode of this game? I see that an other player must control the enemies.
Swietny materiał! Chciałem tylko zapytać o zaklęcie "magic arrow" w początkowej talii. Nie mogę znaleźć tej reguły nigdzie w instrukcji. Czy ta zasada istniała tylko w prototypie? Czy zwyczajnie nie mogę jej nigdzie znaleź :/ pozdrawiam serdecznie!!
it looks so much like pc game and like "Slay the spire" we have the same question : what the point spending 100 euros if we can get this game on steam for 10 ? Thx for this overview.
Not everyone plays games on Steam. I am a console gamer. Besides, it is possible to be interested in both video games AND board games. They each offer a unique experience. Playing the Resident Evil board games is just as much fun as playing the video games.
Some people either don't play video games, or only play on consoles. For board game fans it's also worth getting just for the miniatures, which are generic enough to be used in other games, like HeroQuest.
If you think this looks boring or difficult, then you aren't much of a board gamer. This is very simple and easy (especially compared to the video game) and the playtime is only 45 minutes per player. Many board games can last for hours, and are far more complex than this.
