Favor: Gods of Oethera

Playtested this game at Dragonflight 2023, after immediately falling love with the aesthetic, and loved every minute of it. Definitely a must if you're ever looking for a casual game night with friends or family! I cannot wait to add it to my rotation when we need that Betrayal itch, but have younger kids around.

Delightful fanstasy game which allows for both cooperative and competitive play. Just complicated enough to have you using your brain but not so challenging that you can’t get through the directions. Creative world with adorable characters and satisfying play. Highly recommend!!!!

I had the pleasure of playing the prototype. I can't wait until the game is available in retail. The game is engaging during everyone's turn. The only downside of the game is that it can take up to two hours to play, and I enjoy shorter games.

Excellent game that caters to multiple interests.

I played this game recently during a play test opportunity and absolutely adored it! Looking forward to buying it next year when it comes out.

I picked up this game at a convention near Seattle from the designer. I promised to give him an honest review and that's what I will do.

First the pros: The art is clean and cute The rules are easy to understand The gameplay loop worked without issue and the timing of the game felt right (not too long or short for the game it is).

The cons: I felt that the decision making was very light. Most turns there was only a few clear options to do. The game lacks deep mechanics that are fun to discover, exploit and customize.

My opinion on this game stems from my taste in games. I like games that have a lot of room for thinking, scheming and strategizing. This game reminds me of Talisman which is not a game I enjoyed for similar reasons. If you enjoy Talisman and want a shorter version of it that is easy to pick up and play with a fresh group, this could be a good choice for you.

Bought this today at a comic con. Great game. Had a wonderful time playing it with my husband. Will definitely become a family favorite.

Pretty fun with lots of depth. Has a few minor balance issues and lacks resources online such as guides, but the rules are clear enough that it's not a major issue!
