RE: Heard a Lot But Haven't Tried it Yet
Karden,
I purchased FANG online and was able to pay $80 which included shipping. The cost was high i do admit, but it is one of the only games i can get the non-horror fans to play. Also the rules are much simpler, at least for the meantime. If you play cooperatively it gets a little more complex but not to the likes of trying to remember a remains in play card every round. I think a lot of the cost is the plastic pieces, which all in all are nice, but don't make the game. For overall game play it is fun! We have had situations where players stole the artifact right out from under another who was at a cliffhanger. There are also some wicked damning location/event cards where you can totally screw players. There is a card called something like "Shanghai surprise" where the local mobsters kidnap you and send you to shanghai. Well, my friends wife was about to win the game, if she just could make it to Moscow to deliver a secret package. She lands in Moscow, with a triumphant grin, only to pull the card, sent to shanghai, beaten by thugs, and lose a good deal of fortune (KOed). Hopefully she will play again. Oh, I could mention how I paid for it. I grabbed even jar or can of coins I had in the house, went to Coinstar, traded in for value on an online gift certificate. So I really feel like I only spent 20 bucks. Anywho, in summation, a good game. Worth $100? Maybe not, maybe you can ask for it for the holidays/birthday. |
