Legends Untold: Weeping Caves Novice Set – Kickstarter Edition

KS

It definitely fails in its "as fast as a card game, as deep as an RPG" marketing tag line. However, it was sufficiently fun that our group of 6 (we used both Weeping Caves and Great Sewers combined) played the whole Cinematic Campaign from Weeping Caves. However, it lacked sufficient pull for there to be interest in playing the Scenarios, or for attempting the Great Sewer Cinematic Campaign.

We approached the game in such a different manner to that envisaged by the designer that they were moved to say that we "played a completely different game that happened to use the same components". I'm not sure whether that's a good thing or a bad one. We had a lot of discussion with the designer/publisher about what we thought the "failings" of the game were, and it may be that most of the issues we had were a result of the 6P player count; however, there are issues with the system and deficiencies in the product in the box that are not player count related.

I'm going to give it an airing with just the Great Sewer content in the context of a 4P group, after which I suspect it's destined for the "For Trade" heap.
