The minis, being made of a rubbery plastic, are easy to fix. Set comes with 40 plus minis all that can be primed and painted or left as is.

Cons

Quality


I have no idea how to play this but i love the figures and tokens that come with the box


It comes with the mini figures that are paintable so that’s pretty cool


This goes along with the limited replay value


So it seems as though the rulebook is inconsistent with the contents

Price


I bought this game on sale for 39usd which was a great price


I couldnt even find used ones for this price

Packaging/appearance


Was a big time dnd player back in the day 3

Competitiveness


Would recommend this to either complete dd noobs folks that are familiar with all the things


Got this as a gift for my 13yr old brother

    One confusing thing about the contents is that the components list says there should be 50 treasure cards and there are 45 cards labeled 34treasure34

    Also there are supposed to be 5 34adventure34 cards but there are 10 cards labeled 34adventure treasure34

    The game is somewhat easy to learn


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There are a lot of things to keep track of and the descriptive wording on the cards could be more clear


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There is a learning curve to the game so if you are looking to get a board game based on how quickly it can be set up this might not be the game for you


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The game is a card drafting system
