This leads to what makes the game fun is that a player is never out of the running if they have one of their characters defeated. If they are eliminated by the enemies of the board, or fellow players, they can return by doing a simple rest action. That is the great mechanic of this game. Every time a player does an attack with one of their three characters they will have to place an exhaust token on that weapon. Eventually a player will no longer be able to do something and will need to rest. This gives a lot of strategy and timing that a player needs to consider on their turns.
Combat itself is rolling dice, which is defined by being a range, bows, or close range attack, swords. Special equipment can add a little more to what a player can do, but it is still just rolling dice against enemies/players. When combating an enemy from the board a player chooses who they are using for their turn and activating a weapon for attack. That weapon dictates the amount of dice used, are they wanting swords or bows, and whatever other special power the player may have of that particular character. They then simply roll the attack trying to match or exceed an enemies health. This leads to another great effect in the game as enemies have an overkill rating. The overkill rating is the amount of success that needs to be rolled to avoid a retaliation attack. If a player does not hit that value the enemy gets to attack that player back, even if the player managed to eliminate the enemy. Players do not get the same counter attack when targeted by a player, but they can roll defense against a player's attack. Combat is fun, fast, and easy to learn.
At the end of each scenario the players will tally up the amount of gold they earned from completing quests, being the first to complete a quest, and eliminating enemies/players. Then a drafting round will occur that gives players a chance to improve their characters for the next round. Someone would consider that this is the moment where the game will fall apart as the player with the most money will win the game, that is not true. Players are limited to only being able to buy three things. The items available to purchase are strong, but some can also be really cheap for players with little money to purchase. Yes, there are expansive powerful items, but never so much that it will make someone think the next round is going to that player. Also, since it is drafting, six cards dealt to each player as they pick two and pass the rest, players are able to choose to keep the most powerful item cards out of the other players hands by drafting that card, since that player can afford it.
This series has fantastic miniatures to immerse anyone into the game, and plenty of expansions to keep players interested if they really fall in love with the series. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a dungeon crawler that is not co-operative, nice amount of dice chucking, and a fantastic amount of replay value.
This game is not a co-op, but an all against all. I describe it a lot like a board game version of the video game gauntlet. Each scenario you set up the board as it's shown in the manual, which can take a little bit of time because you need to look at the tiles and match the way they're turned, etc. Once you've done it once, setup is a breeze each time after, like maybe 10 mins. Once you get the game started it's fast and you can be through a scenario in 45 minutes, maybe less.
The goal is to kill the most monsters and get the most loot which is staged around the map. Each scenario has a set of requirements to win. The first player to get an objective finished the first time gets bonus gold. Gold is spent on cool items between rounds, items are passed around in a drafting sort of manner. So between each scenario you get these upgrades and the game get better and better, it's quite a nice character progression system and the game comes with plenty of character sheets to help you record stats/items between gameplay sessions.
What is cool about the scenarios is that you have different layers of the world, you start out on the outer circle, beat some many scenarios, goto the next, then to the middle circle. But you can only choose scenarios next to each other on each circle, so what this does is lets you play back through multiple campaigns in order to have played every scenario, you get to play 6 of 11 each time. It gives you a real reason to start over with different characters and play it all again. The game already has many add-ons that will keep you playing as long as you have the money to keep spending.
The figures in this game are awesome, unless you can't stand chibi style artwork, you will love these. The booklet has some cool character lore in it and the game world is interesting. The quality of pieces and the board tiles are great, the only thing is that it can be hard to get it all back in the box which is a little annoying. You get a lot of pieces in here and a lot for your money.
Rules are simple and easy to follow, the rulebook is among the best out there.
Being all against all you will be killing each other over and over again. You actually respawn in this game, you don't have permanent death, which keeps everyone playing to the end of the scenarios and not getting bored. You do take a penalty for dying at the end of each scenario.
Bottom line: If you've been thinking about this game, you should get this game. Period. This game is competitive, but never seems to make anyone mad. I don't think anyone who's played this or bought this has been let down and that's not always easy.

Anyone worried about not getting enough since missing out on the Kickstarter and all the Kickstarter exclusives, don't. In my opinion they (the Kickstarter exclusive characters) would be awesome to have, but this game is amazing as is.
The objectives change every "scenario" as well and it looks to be a very clever game with many possibilities where you can make up your own scenarios if you are so inclined.
Definately recommend, Be warned tho, the game actually takes up a lot more space that you realise. We ended up playing on the floor.
The miniatures are excellent quality and all the character designs are great - a chunk of them are even not-so-subtle references to well known characters.
This game is good for those looking for a light D&D type experience - the rules for combat are simple and a single game can be completed in an hour (not including setup).
Recommend having all 4 players willing to commit to 6 games (a full campaign).
Sobre el juego: 5/5 me aventuré a comprar este juego debido a las reseñas que vi y puedo decir con satisfacción que ha sido una de las mejores compras que he hecho. Aunque se usa el idioma es muy fácil de entender hasta para los que no hablan mucho en inglés. La calidad de las cartas es muy buena, el arte es atractivo y las miniaturas son excelentes, ¡dan ganas de pintarlas con solo verlas! El juego está pensado para jugar una campaña pero se ha implementado un modo desafío el cual es igual de atractivo.
El juego se divide en dos vertientes jugador contra escenario y jugador contra jugador, lo cual hace que las partidas sean muy dinámicas y divertidas.
El juego puede asustar a los novatos, ya que parece que tiene muchas reglas pero la verdad es que es tan fluido que se entienden muy fácilmente y con sólo jugar unos minutos todo se vuelve muy claro y fácil de aprender. Incluso jugando con erratas se vive un buen momento y nunca se siente roto.
El único punto negativo que tiene es que el set up es un poco tardado pero vale la pena 100%
En tiendas el juego es muy costoso, en español aún más. Realmente creo que por este medio es la manera más fácil de hacerse con este juego que debería estar en la ludoteca de todos los jugones.
