@@dianebusby7047 There are a bunch of really big boss monster "miniatures". Not the size of Cmon Cthulhu or Galactus, but still pretty big ones. If this game would have had standees (acrylic or cardboard), I bet it could have fit into the "Sleeves" box complete :).
I hate the trend of releasing a game with many expansions before the base game has had time to be out for at least a year to get playthroughs. I get they are just modules for the game, but I still prefer just a base game, and then add more later, improve the game, fix some bugs.
Yeah its a huge reason why I have little fomo for kickstarter releases. Doesn't feel like a base game when it can ship with a dozen more gameplay related boxes (minis/etc are there own thing). It just feels like I've gotten a piece of the game as designed. Just like video games these days, just give me a completed game and then start working on extra content or fixes/second editions.
Tom, i'm writing this here in hopes you will reply soon. I've been looking into games like frosthaven and gloomhaven, I'm trying to find a game like these ( or one of these) that has some pretty lengthy gameplay, but the rules aren't too complicated. To be honest frosthaven looks pretty complicated. but I would like your suggestion for which one of these types of games you think best fits this. thanks
That primal stuff is way too much and on the verge of stupidity and ridiculousness
Definitely past the verge
to each their own
Curious about some of those Rio Grande games.
Expert unboxing and rambling
"Sounds like a cartoon movie... Open Season" lol Tom I love you. Open Season is a fantastic animated cartoon film! :) That Primal though...
That Fortune and Glory cover is wild 😂
That size of the Primal...
I bet there's like, a gazillion parts to it!

You're gonna need a bigger box...

Still waiting to get the shipping notification for my copy of Primal :,,,(

I'd laugh if Inventions was 60-150 minutes (per player)
its going to get harder and harder to review games when every game takes 2 years to play
Taking Primal along to the next games night looks like it could be a challenge.
Nah, renting a U-Haul is surprisingly easy 😉
Challenge perhaps, but if you play in the background 'Prince Ali' from the Aladdin film as you're bringing it, it will make sense to everyone...
So glad I canceled my Primal pledge.

Isn't hating your friends contradictory?
Sprue that
