    It may surprise some people this gets the gold medal as i tend toward higher complexity games. But it sets out to do a specific goal, make a fun dice dueling game, and it does it really well. I love that it fits the lunch time game length as well. Anyway, neat game this.

    • @EntroxLicher

      It seems like it does a really good job of offering a lot of variety and options to mitigate randomness-frustration, and at the same time streamline it enough to keep it really tight. Though certainly a simpler game, it seems like you can pull off some neat little combos that will leave you satisfied, while not brain-burnt or take overly long, which seems like your (and my) cup of tea.
      Cheers on another great video!

    This is a great game that is super fun to do tournaments with too. I just got the Adventures KS and oh my great bird it is everything I dreamed it would be and then some. I really believe they've done the impossible by combining bits of Yahtzee and MTG while maintaining a level of tension that can attract a crowd. Season 1 Rerolled makes season 1 function like season 2 and Adventures adds the dungeon crawl that brings co-op/solo modes. Everything Dice Throne has been really well done and having all of the fighters is a must in my book. No Surprise this gets the gold medal.
    As always great video. I was caught off guard by the intro, in spite of the the warning from the last video. I like the new complexity chart, too. Thanks again for the videos and for being a good human.

      @@3MBG This was going to be the question I asked. Adventures adds dungeon crawl, player upgrade, co-op, and solo modes to the game. LITERALLY the only time I have jumped out of my seat and shouted on a dice roll then promptly proceeded to high-five the rest of the players at the table when i demoed it at PAX South. It shouldn't be THAT exciting, but it is and I can't recommend it enough.

    What is the greeting you use at the beginning of your reviews?

    • @3MBG
      @3MBG  Před 3 lety +2

      Kia ora koutou - which is roughly translated "hi all". Koutou means "to many people" and kia ora can mean "hi" but also "thanks" or "cheers"
      So you can say Kia ora to one person as a greeting, or as a cheers when they, say, pass you the sauce at dinner.

    • @3MBG

      Because its short and sharp. Its just high levels of engagement the whole way through and if you lose, so be it. It scratches that lunch time magic game/speed chess sort of itch for me. I like a lot of 2+ hour deep engine building games, but i like this one for its change of pace from that

    • @joelface

      I think it's because despite a lot of dice rolling you still get to make TONS of interesting choices at every step of your turn. You're never just going through the paces, and if you are it's probably because you're not playing it very well.

      @@PalladiumOne The heroes get more unique beyond that starter box, but if you don't like Yahtzee, it might be hard to get past rolling dice multiple times and deciding how far to push your luck. That said, having a unique deck of cards for each hero does a lot for the game's strategy, as does having a player-board with certain abilities you can go for each turn (instead of them getting crossed off after you use them like in Yahtzee). For me, I'm not CRAZY about Yahtzee, but I love how the mechanic tempers the randomness of dice to make you weigh your options multiple times each turn instead of just going with whatever you happened to roll on your first try.
