I can say that I have really enjoyed the others, Last night was the first FF game I played and I was really impressed. It did take awhile to iron out all the rules fully understand the mechanics but I now love it and always want to bring it to the table!

Fortune and Glory stood out as my favourite first time play. We threw on the Indiana Jones soundtrack and got stuck in. It took 5 hours but I loved every second of it. There was quite a bit of rule checking but I have found a quick reference chart helps with this game as there is quite a bit to remember. The cliffhanger component adds real excitement.

Conquest has a much less "grand" feel but is some relatively simple fun. I enjoyed the carnage but it did heva a little less "wow" factor.

I am struggling with Invasion... it just seems too much like Last Night.. I know I'll like it but it's hard to get into it when I know I could be using that time to play Last Night instead.

I have booked a night with some friends to give a touch of evil a crack and I'll keep you posted :-)

Cool, thanks for the info. I'm interested to see what you say about AToE because it appears to be the second most popular game for the people on this board...

Gave AToE a crack today and really enjoyed it. It plays more like Fortune and Glory than LNoE. Having played FANG this was pretty easy to pick up and get stuck in - but the game seems a little more clunky than FANG. Not sure if maybe I prefer the Indiana Jones style of finding artifacts and selling them in a race around the world as opposed to hunting down a monster in a brown and black village... My wife enjoyed AToE a little more than FANG and I'm vice versa.... in saying that They are both worth owning :-)
