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

Upgrade Pick

Elegance has always been at the core of Tokaido. This year at Gen Con, we were very pleased, with the help of Antoine Bauza himself, to unveil the first look at the upcoming , beautiful new version, the Tokaido 5th Anniversary Edition. With new artwork from Naïade, new graphics design for the cards, new panorama pictures for travelers to combine, and a fresh new graphical look, the Tokaido 5th Anniversary Edition will be both a new product that stands on its own while also continuing the tradition of elegance and beauty that everyone expects from this beloved brand!

Each player is a traveler crossing the "East sea road", one of the most magnificent roads of Japan. While traveling, players will meet people, taste fine meals, collect beautiful items, discover great panoramas, and visit temples and wild places. At the end of the day, when everyone has arrived at the end of the road you'll have to be the most initiated traveler – which means that you'll have to be the one who discovered the most interesting and varied things.

The Dice Tower

 You do need money to buy certain things. Little trinkets food, you stop and get your money. You can come again to a village again to the temple again do an encounter, and then there is the tile. That'S a five panorama seascape that you can paint each card is worth more and more victory points as you get closer and closer to finishing the painting

 Well, that's another victory point. So you want to diversify and pick up a wide. You know experience of trinkets or souvenirs along the way and again you want to be able to hopefully get the best deal or afford them along the way. So you've got to have money, buy souvenirs when you get into the end, so we've all gone down the road we've stopped

 Looking thing which, like guitar, clothing, item food item or in this case a top or a little trinket from the fan item and the more you diversify. So if you've got just one of these you're gon na score, one if you've got two of the different types. Three, if you've got three of them five and if you've got all four of the different types, it's worth seven points for you and you can have a whole nother one set. So maybe I've only got one other fan type

 One first of all, really neat whatever your color is, is just going to fit right into this little notch and be easier. Okay, I fit it into him, hello, let's just say it's fit right into her sought, Suki's interesting. First of all, they've waited this there's a special ability. They'Ll get to do

Tokaido Review - with the Chief

I think Tokaido is the better game using the "move ahead to an open space, collect something for points", though I'm not sure if that's any good at 2.

Hi all,

I am looking for a gift for my partner and I have seen the game called PARK. 

We are new to board games but PARKS appealed to me as we both love wild camping and hiking, also the art work looks amazing. 

Would this be a good gift or should I consider other options. I have been considering Wings and Fungi also.

The only board game we have played together is Zombicide 

Thank you

Would this be a good gift or should I consider other options. I have been considering Wings and Fungi, patchwork &amp; TTR Nordic edition. However I wanted to choose a game which linked to his interests as I thought this would be more thoughtful (outdoors, physics (degree in nanoscience!) space, foraging, LOTR, boxing). 

The only board game we have played together is Zombicide which we enjoyed. I have HIVE and sushi go. Have yet to play much of either but I liked sushi go. 

We mostly spend time together as just the two of us so a two player game is important. But this will be a Christmas gift so I suspect we may play with family on first use!

Thank you for all the wonderful advice. Really really appreciate it. Lots of great ideas.

Thoughts on PARKS as a two player game

I just snagged a copy of **Royal Visit** before they all disappear off the face of the planet thanks to SUSD. Some other aesthetic gems in my current collection:  

 One coin gives you one coin and two points. Sometimes you don't feel like finishing that panorama or whatever, so these are here until they run out, you can take as many of those as you want when you stop at a hot springs or a bathhouse. Instead of taking a hot springs card, which, if you remember, are two or three points you can take one of these cards, which are worth four points problem. Is these costs a coin? To do so? So again, that's up to you

 Instead of taking a hot springs card, which, if you remember, are two or three points you can take one of these cards, which are worth four points problem. Is these costs a coin? To do so? So again, that's up to you. You can take four points for a coin or two or three points for free. When you stop at a temple, instead of giving money up, you can instead pay and take an amulet card

 These are going to be much more expensive objects, possibly that can add to your sets, there's an extra set that can take a set all the way up to nine now and some that are just worth eight points that you can buy and then, finally, whenever you Go to have an encounter you can take besides an encounter card. You can take one of these calligraphy cards here, and these are extra points at the end of the game. Again, these costs money. So this will give you three for every uneaten meal

 When you go to a space, you can take both options on that space. Here you can trade, your meal card, take your meal card for free. When you stop at an end see these are like one-time actions that you can buy. Whenever you go to a temple, when you go to a shop, you can take the souvenirs or you can go for a legendary object

Tokaido Crossroads Review - with Tom and Zee

 Actions you take against another player appear very subtle since all you can really do is block them from taking a certain space but then they may take a space you really want.  This is a good game to introduce non-gamers to or to people that just want a relatively simple game to learn and play.

 The rules are very straighforward. Each player is a character with a special ability that will help you when you stop at specific spaces as you traverse the path. Decisions are fairly easy: stop at a location, pick up the corresponding card and gain immediate points, choose to purchase it or leave an offering at the temple. Almost every action will give you some points so it minimized analysis paralysis

Delivers a relaxing feeling

I bought this for my wife for Christmas. The theme was Travel. I figured since we couldn't go on vacation this year due to covid, I'd take her on vacation at home. She loves it!
