awesome review Mark and Randy!
Great review! Your enthusiasm was tops. :)
Thank you! It was a fun one to shoot...
I got my copy at GenCon. If you like Mice and Mystics, this takes it to 11.
I have to agree!!
Just picked up the original. My wife who never plays a game with more than two pages of rules, loved it. Once we finish this. We'll definitely be picking up this one.
I wasn't planning on getting this as my family has not finished even the first one yet. We have the Heart of Glorm to play through as well. HOWEVER, seeing what's in the box and how they seemed to have improved everything (including difficulty), I think I'm going to pick this up. It looks really great, thanks for the review.
Awesome! Yup, lots to love in this expansion!
Looks great! Come on, if you liked Mice & Mystics you're going to pick this up!
loved the original. but want to get more out of it before jumping to any expansions (one thing is for certain is there is a LOT of longevity with the Mice n Mystics games)
I was going to buy the original game but it's pretty hard to find in stock, the ones I do find in stock are like 200 bucks for some reason. Idk I may just pick up this expansion instead.
I ordered the base game the other day to play with my ol'lady. Assuming we like it, I'll buy this one sooner then later. She liked the Dnd games because they were co-op. She didn't like Descent 2nd because we played against each other. She also found the rules to be a little too much in descent.
I'm thinking this one will be a good in between. It has the Co-op play she likes, along with the more advanced rules that I like (compared to Dnd board games). I'm not sure how I feel about the story aspect, but, I know she'll love it.
I'm also going to paint these suckers up. Just got into mini painting. After I finish my first set "Zombicide" (Zombies are a good spot to start mini painting), I'm going to give the base game of mice a good painting.
Can't wait.
I have a question: If I pick up Mice and Mystics with the expansions, do the characters that come with the expansions work within the core game or no?
yes, the heroes are transferable. Technically the monsters are as well, but imo that breaks the immersion. frogs in kitchens, nonsense I say!!!
Does this expansion start right after the first main game?
if it just was not out of stock on the website at the moment
Do you need the first mouse and mystics to play this?
Hey guys, great review! How come no ratings? Is it because this is an expansion and not a full game? Still great overview and will be picking this up. :)
Yeah, because it's an expansion and we haven't played all 10 chapters yet. But so far, from me, 4.0 corners out of 4!
And again, thanks for the support. :-)
Can this expansion be played on it's own without owning the original Mice and Mystics?
No, you need the core game.
Except in the other expansion their is zombies
Do you need mice and mystics, the original game, to play this? Or can you just start playing this game. Are there pieces from the original you need?
I wish it had a dungeon master or game master variant always included... not necessarily an antagonist, more like options you can chose and tests you can setup and you moving the monsters. So that it is... not that lame AI :(.
The components and story are great but well,... gave it away :/.
