This is a filler mini co-op game that plays fine for its low cost value. It is a tile crawler game that can be played solo or up to 4 players. You just have to cut the tiles and tokens and you are ready to start playing the game. All cards and tiles have pixel art graphics like the arcade games of the 80s. The rules (3 pages), if you read them carefully, are crystal clear and after one play everything is put into perspective. This is facilitated by an introductory / training scenario. Then you are ready to start the story / campaign game which is comprised by 15 scenarios! Plenty of situations, variety of objectives, plethora of monsters and weapons, a modular board that changes on every play and Lady Luck ensure replay-ability and fun time. For such a small PnP game it works surprisingly smooth and you want get disappointed.

To be honest the game is really well build for a £5 kickstarter. You roll dice a lot, move around, explore and fight, It's very quick to do one scenario and the mechanics are very pleasant. The only down side for me was the box so I bought a screw box to sort out all the pieces of the game so the setup gets much quicker otherwise It takes you as much to setup than to play. Overall a very good game that could be upgraded with high quality pieces.
