Just a way to portray what games you love. I have a LNOE, Pandemic, and Mice and Mystics currently.


Are you digging Mice and Mystics? I was considering it for a story telling game for my gf and me but she wasn't keen on the them (I am on the fence). I just traded for Mansions of Mansions instead hoping that fills the void.

I wonder the same. I couldn't tell how to feel about the game from the info I saw about it on BGG.

I love it but then again the redwall books filled my childhood and I fell in love with those stories! I love the quality of the tiles and minis and the game dynamic of the minion wheel is new! This is the first dungeon crawl ive ever played though so I have nothing to compare to.

Have you watched the WatchItPlayed Series with Rodney Smith? This is a link to the How to play you should be able to watch there gameplay videos from there.

I would buy it if it wasn't so expensive. When I saw it I thought of Mouse Guard, which I like, so I don't have a problem with playing mice. M&M seems like a nice production, and I might pick it up later on.

Coolstuffinc.com has it was $48.99 with i think about $10 shipping. Thats the cheapest I have seen it. If you get it off the PHG website it comes with two promo cards but I believe is $74.95 with $12.96 shipping. It is out of stock in most places and when it comes in stock is back out in less than 24 hours.

That's great, might give Coolstuff a go next time. "My" online retailer charges $119 for it with shipping on top of that. Boardgames are quite expensive in Norway, like everything else. Thanks for the tip!

Video looked great, thanks. I didn't know it was there. My BF and I both like how it looks. We'll probably pick it up in a few months.

It looks like the love child of Mansions of Madness and Super Dungeon Explore.

Have you seen the watch it played series where Rodney Smith and his kid play Chapter 1? If not it really pulls you into the game I think its 10 or 11 videos that are about 10 min each.

Here is a link to the playlist. I suggest giving it a watch he explains the game dynamics a little more as well.
