I got the opposite problem. I sit at the table and then get a super easy, super random game that lasts an hour and I just get irritated to waste an entire hour doing something that I feel trivial and random.
I’d rather play a 4-hour complex game but with lots of player agency rather than a 60-minute dice fest.
why is everyone praising it? they spent it all on costumes and sets, and forgot to hire an almost decent writer. the script is terrible, it’s full of nonsensical stuff and it feels copypasted from others shows. I really disliked it, and I played all the Fallouts since the 1990’s.
ah, shit. i really like his style.
yyyyyeah, 57 ratings on BGG is really low.
definitely imperial steam, although very rewarding to play once understood. it’s my favorite game in collection, tied with terraforming mars.
I saw a tutorial for Voidfall yesterday and I gotta say that game wins for the most complex ruleset out there though :)
I own most of the titles in the list, and they definitely forgotten about Imperial Steam.
this one looks great!
I think I tried it and it ran perfectly. I think there’s also an UI redesign for the Deck IIRC
oh man! I really played this game a lot back when it was released!
very nice indeed!
ohhhh this is interesting!!
it still relies on rolling the dices though. you can have a player hitting a perfect streak of 6 clean dices in multiple rows, and you might always crash while trying to save tokens. crashing at the wrong place is also very punitive, especially in a game where winning or losing is down to the last turn if all the players know the game well.
I have it. I find it very interesting but in all honesty it has a frustrating design. as soon as you learn how to trace trajectories, racing becomes so close to the point of being non interesting. and to gain an edge you start to rely on luck, which can destroy your race.
this was my first roguelike, we used to play it in high school in 1996 on the lab computers. nice times.
there was a show called Undercover Boss where the CEO of the company had to dress up like a common Joe and live the life of one of his employees for a week. the employee who treated him better was then rewarded by the CEO with money, promotions etc.
so, what happens when it collides? is it a glitch fest like when two planets intersect like in no man’s sky?
ah. this is interesting.
sooo… they’re charging 30$ to fix their own game?
I sold my switch when I got my SD. I couldn’t justify having a worse device, with worse ergonomics, with worse games pricing, and technically with no exclusives (thank you Yuzo). the SD is all-around a much better device than any Switch.
anyways Terraforming Mars hardly lasts more than 3 hours. I’ve had games at it that lasted 1h45’. It needs that everybody prepare their turn on other player’s turns, and when it’s up to you, you just execute what you planned.
