Gloomhaven is a game of Euro-inspired tactical combat board game in a persistent world of shifting motives. Players will take on the role of a wandering adventurer with their own special set of skills and their own reasons for travelling to this dark corner of the world. Players must work together out of necessity to clear out menacing dungeons and forgotten ruins. In the process they will enhance their abilities with experience and loot, discover new locations to explore and plunder, and expand an ever-branching story fueled by the decisions they make. This is a legacy game with a persistent and changing world that is ideally played over many game sessions. After a scenario, players will make decisions on what to do, which will determine how the story continues, kind of like a Choose Your Own Adventure book.

Long Story short: This game is absolutely wonderful! This (according to many board game review sites) is set to be the top game of 2017, and I 100% recommend getting yourself a copy, though it will likely be difficult/take some time. Its definitely a HOT selling item and I was lucky enough to pre-order mine a month ago before other folks started seeing it listed on Amazon. This is definitely worth getting and will make a huge hit to your gaming nights! A more detailed breakdown is below. (Note relating to pictures: The game does NOT come with painted miniatures

This game is absolutely wonderful!

 You can then upgrade to the full GH experience later and can bring the classes across so its literally win win. One massive downside to GH is the organisation, the 3rd party inserts are a godsend but can cost almost as much as the base game.

Some friends and I split $25/each and bought my sister Gloomhaven as a Christmas gift - on my suggestion. I bought it from our local shop today and the size &amp; weight immediately had me worried... because **a primary reason we were buying her a new boardgame is that she has a hard time getting people to play Dead of Winter with her (a game she** ***really*** **likes).**

I have no clue where I got this idea, but I thought Gloomhaven would be something she could more easily get people to play. Anyway, I have since learned the error of my ways.

I felt pretty confident that she would at least really like the game and could find a regular player in me (we live together) and at least one other friend. So I've been thinking about doing all the setup/organization for her beforehand... but if I do this, there is no turning back. I can't return the game. And I'm starting to doubt how much she'll like it... I may also be panicking...

I did buy another game for her that's half the price, with much easier setup and simpler rules, just so she has *options...*

**TL;DR - I split Gloomhaven as a Christmas gift. Should I open it up and start the setup/organization process, voiding my ability to return it? Or should I just return it? Did I buy my sister a burden?**

Some additional gaming background on my sister:

* She enjoys DnD a lot. We played regularly for 4 years until I had to quit DMing after going back to school
* She really likes Dead of Winter for it's Co-Op gameplay, Narrative Choice mechanics, Variable Player Powers, and tense *moments*
* Dead of Winter is the only medium weight board game she owns
* The next heaviest is Betrayal at House on the Hill
* Root is a medium weight game she has also really enjoyed
* She seems to really like boardgames and seems to want to delve deeper into the hobby, but hasn't yet
* BANG!, Coup, Pit, Catan, Ticket to Ride, Secret Hitler, and Fake Artist Goes to New York are all games she's liked and enjoyed, but they're all light weight and don't scratch the same itch
* We've gifted her expansions for DoW and Betrayal in the past. We want to buy her a new, medium weight game

<div class="md">FINAL EDIT: In case anyone was curious how my foolish saga ended - We ended up swapping Gloomhaven for JotL and Mansions of Madness instead. I think she is going to be MUCH happier with these lol thanks again for all the help! And big shoutout to my local shop who were super nice and helpful while I tried correcting this blunder ╰(´︶`)╯♡

(I&#39;m not naming the shop because I don&#39;t wanna doxx myself lol)

EDIT: I have learned my lesson and will do more research before buying very hobby specific gifts for a hobby I&#39;m not involved in 🥲 I&#39;m going to talk to my friends about returning it get to get JotL and another game instead, or getting a different, pricier game that better suits what we&#39;re aiming for. Thank you everyone who helped me with this!

Bought Gloomhaven as a gift - Return it or start organizing?

Easy to follow rules on how to play and my jr. high high and high school kids can not stop playing it with me.

Amazing game you must get!

 Using the analog system included in the box is manageable in the early days, but as the game develops this becomes a literal accounting nightmare.  This is not the kind of game you can just pull off the shelf and have a good go at it with uninitiated friends. Expect a newcomer to need a good six hours of exposure at least to come to grips with the genius of this game and begin to truly enjoy themselves.  In short, a gamer (or group) needs to approach Gloomhaven as a hobby with all the commitment a hobby entails to get the most out of this experience

Incredible experience, with additional purchases required.

 You then use the top action on one card, and the bottom action on the other. These are then placed in a discard pile and the cycle continues. Once you are unable to play a pair of cards on your turn, you’ll have to rest to get them back. However, upon resting you’ll be forced to [b]burn[/b] a card, which makes it unavailable for the rest of the scenario

 It takes some time to become accustomed to your new recruit before you realise their full potential. So, what do you say to a bit of good old-fashioned dungeon delving?

 Like any game, the introduction of the concepts precedes the details of the rules. But, in this case, the rules of game play leave out important details and require cross referencing with other parts of the rule book in 1 to 2 other spots to fully grasp what is going on. Fortunately, an online search engine allows quick answers to vague gameplay concepts.  Second, as mentioned above, some of the concepts need more explanation than the rules provide

 I do not like the component quality of this game. It'S cheap and yes, I know that's part of Hasbro: stick because Hasbro's trying to sell 600 million of these a year. But when you open up the box and you look inside these plastic houses and all man do I miss the nice wooden house of the past? Aren'T very good: the best thing are these metal pieces. These are great and even if they did get rid of the iron in Cannon and now have a raptor and a shudder cat

 Free parking is a boring space. You land there and nothing happens. Just visiting jail is the same way. You say, but yeah you can spice up monopoly by putting money on free parking, we're putting money in the middle of the board and anytime you pay the bank

 But when you open up the box and you look inside these plastic houses and all man do I miss the nice wooden house of the past? Aren'T very good: the best thing are these metal pieces. These are great and even if they did get rid of the iron in Cannon and now have a raptor and a shudder cat. But you know the metal pieces do work very well. The cards no come on

Why I HATE Monopoly

 Today. I'M gon na be playing with my two best friends, my sister Kayla and my adorable boyfriend Zach, who do you think will win and, yes, we are playing on the floor because being the unusual person that I am, we don't have a dining room table and chairs. Instead, we have a wall of dragons, hey guys. I have more babies looking for homes, they need hugs and snuggles

 Well, in this case, they're supposed to be diners and pizza reads. This makes sense from a monopoly standpoint, but uh am I going to be building a diner on Bal Laura? Does that mean Bell or is gon na, have her own diner? What happens when I have two or three or four diners? Is she just gon na take turns working in each one? I find this actually kind of funny, but also weird before I open the box, I was wondering what they do with these pieces and we kind of came up with the idea that maybe they're animatronic upgrades, which honestly I think would have made a lot more sense And shouldn't have been very hard to do so. I was a bit bummed. They weren't very unique with those you may be thinking always probably too much work to replace the house and hotel pieces with some brand-new piece

 What this is so cool, the cheapest characters are from sister location, which makes no sense. They seem like they'd, be the most expensive, but at the same time, the order of these characters go by game builder, the game, the more expensive the character, which makes total sense from a nostalgic standpoint. Of course, everyone's gon na want Freddy and golden Freddy, which are placed in the most expensive spots. The images of these characters are just fantastic

 I was a bit bummed. They weren't very unique with those you may be thinking always probably too much work to replace the house and hotel pieces with some brand-new piece. Well, actually, it's probably not that hard. There are little tiny pieces of plastic and the freaking cheesy derry-o Polly game that I grew up with replaced them with cows, and calves come on Freddy, ah Polly dairy awfully is beating you right now, but anyway, let's stop gawking at this and play it already

Five Nights at Freddy's Monopoly Review and Playthrough

 It all comes down to just two dice. It'S not fair! I'M going to roll some dice to decide which one of you I will go out with, but you only just met him. I'Ve been liking your facebook statuses for years, even when they're not funny good luck, biron wins in a fair game. She would have picked based on who played their hand better

 This is a turn up for the books. I'D like to thank all of my opponents for being jolly good sports, but ask that you kiss my posterior mmm blob. A monopoly is known for being mean, but it isn't even good at that. If I want to take down my nemesis steal all his money and force him into bankruptcy, I can't I don't decide who I sabotage

If someone says they're into films or video games, do you think of this, then why, when it comes to board games the most people think of a game? That'S over a hundred years old, oh, do my weekly vinyl shop and I found this vintage board game honestly. You should only buy games made before world war. Two they were just so much better back then monopoly is a terrible game that no one should still be playing in this video. I'M going to explain why everything in monopoly is determined by luck, whether you're bankrupted by landing on someone else's hotels or made rich by them landing on yours

 If you each have your own city and you can build flats and shops and factories and parks - and you know what no one can steal them from you - they're yours - you can still enjoy the sweet taste of victory, but it's a more civilized victory golly. Well. This is a turn up for the books. I'D like to thank all of my opponents for being jolly good sports, but ask that you kiss my posterior mmm blob

Why You Should NEVER Play MONOPOLY Again

 Add in the luck cards and the possibility of jail time and don't forget the bidding wars and the ability to mortgage your property to get out of debt or refinance to buy more property. This is a great representation of Capitalism at its best, teaching children the concept of adding and subtracting, how much effect luck has on life, and how to make calculated decisions such as, "do I keep enough cash to survive this round or should I risk it on expanding my empire with the potential to make more money?"  Will you be ruthless enough to bankrupt your opponents and win the game or will you settle for the more gentile "timed" version and see who has the most assets after a few hours? The choices are yours..

Superb classic family board game

I hate Monopoly.  At this point I refuse to play it.  But Mario Kart Monopoly feels far more like an actual Mario Party boardgame than either Monopoly or Mario Kart itself.

The game lasts maybe 40 minutes by design.  You're collecting coins from properties and from other players, but the coins only allow you to "buy in" to the Grand Prix races, and the Grand Prix trophies are how the winner is determined.

What is the r/boardgames opinion on the Super Mario Party series of videogames? 

 

The latest one is being called “the best yet” from a lot of reviewers, but it is still stuck in the world of “roll-to-move”, a lot of take-that elements, and straight-up unfairness (e.g. sometimes “stars”, the winning currency, can be just pulled from you at a moment’s notice, too bad), yet despite all those things a lot of regular modern boardgamers would be against, the Mario Party games are still super popular.  The mini-game side of Mario Party games are entertaining to me, but the rest can be very frustrating, and a full game can take a lot longer than it should given the depth of the system in general.

 

Do you think they still hold a good place to introduce videogamers to the world of board gaming regardless?
