Wow, I don't normally write reviews but this game seriously deserves one! This was a present from a friend and turned out to be an extremely engaging board game that has a great blend of strategy and luck. The artwork is stunning, with beautifully illustrated golems and landscapes. The heft of the ceramic golem pieces makes it feel like you are truly immersed in battle and it certainly feels like a luxury experience compared to the other board games I try. You can tell a lot of heart and mind has been put into this, it is well-designed, with clear, easy-to-follow rules that make the gameplay smooth and straightforward. The game encourages creative thinking and adaptable gameplay. There are various strategies to try, from focusing on a single element to diversifying your deck and using a combination of spells. The game also rewards players for taking risks and making bold moves, making for an intense and engaging experience. It has been a source of hours of fun for our family and friends (I am usually the winner of course) - thank you for such a fantastic board game!
