The game is stunningly produced but oddly haphazard, as if put together in a rush. The artwork is brilliant. The board is intuitive to use. The tiles, scenario cards, character sheets, cards and tokens are all of decent quality. However, the English grammar is lacking a little. Odd sentence structures and word-choices are easy to forgive, when using a second language, but unnecessary typos crop up in the rulebook and on cards/game-components (mis-spellings, poor spacing i.e. wordsjoinedwithoutspaces, inappropriate use of punctuation etc.) and these show a lack of care.

The rulebook is very long. It attempts to be thorough and hence repeats itself a lot regarding the main rules, but leaves out other more minor bits of information. There was nothing I couldn't work out with a bit of intuition but the rulebook is certainly not clear. There are even images which are mislabelled, causing some confusion.


:cry:

On the boat to the Z-Man version as well.

Thx for the great review.
