Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage includes exciting new player characters & monsters like the Elf Cleric of the Grave & the terrifying Death Tyrant. This set of collectible figures perfectly represents many of the monsters and villains found throughout the twenty-three levels of Undermountain detailed in Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage. At the bottom of this crumbling shaft is a labyrinthine dungeon known as Undermountain, domain of the mad wizard Halaster Blackcloak who has seeded his lair with monsters, traps, and mysteries. In the city of Waterdeep rests a tavern called the Yawning Portal, named after the gaping pit in its common room. Most people I have taught the game to have asked to play it again, which alone makes it worth the price. Overall: Despite Bloodborne: The Card Game’s issues, I have enjoyed my time with it so far. Considering how long it has taken for CMON to release an expansion, this seems like a problem that may not get fixed. The Ugly: Where is Ludwig’s Holy Blade? Where is the Chikage? There are too many iconic weapons and items from Bloodborne that are absent from the base game as well as the upcoming expansion. The Bad: Nothing too serious though, in my opinion, the relatively low variety of cards and the slow rate at which you acquire them negatively impacts the experience. The Good: Great price point, quick turns, engaging combat, not too mean backstabbing mechanics, and mostly faithful to the source material.
Once the final boss is defeated, the player with the highest total Blood Echoes wins. The overall theme of the game is that the players are fighting their way through the chalice dungeons in order to get to the final boss.Īlong the way players will improve their hand by getting new cards, collect victory points (called Blood Echoes) by dealing damage, and even attempt to sabotage their fellow hunters. I am looking forward to the future expansions and hoping that WizKids brings in more diverse tiles such as odd-shaped caverns and more diversity in wall lengths and sizes.īloodborne is a semi cooperative game for 3-5 players, and generally lasts for about 45 minutes to an hour once you understand the mechanics. Again, a little planning will likely be needed when combining tiles across brand.Īll-in-all I would say that this is a great buy. One other issue (which will probably be a non-issue for most people) is that these tiles are thinner and of a different dimension than Dwarven Forge tiles which makes combining tile sets a little wonky.Ī simple piece of thin cardboard could probably bring the Warlock tiles to the same thickness as the Dwarven Forge floors but don’t expect to easily use DF walls with this system. You could always, of course, not clip in the tiles and be just fine although you loose some of the sturdiness that the clips bring. You really have to think about how you’re going to lay out your battlemap before you begin clipping in tiles, otherwise you will find yourself having to unclip tiles and repositioning them to accommodate new tiles. The tiles are not very easy to clip in from multiple directions.
The second issue is with the clipping system. With no expansion set specifically for more tiles you will have to buy more of the tile sets in order to really use all of the walls. The fist is that even though this set has more tiles than the Town set, it still feels like you need more. The doors and walls are likewise very easy to place and great for visualizing battlemaps. The tiles are well made and look good on the table. This is a great system that works well for getting terrain on the table quickly.
