Quarriors Base, Rise of the Demons and Quarmegddon
(Warning: I really love this game, it is fantastic)
Parts and Production Value:
Quarriors base set tin, Quarmageddon and Rise of the Demons
Dice storage tray of glorious gloriousness with EPIC LID!!! So nice!
The production value in this game is impressive. One hundred and thirty dice in the base set makes the purchase well worth it. There is a very special game hiding in that tin.
The dice are brightly coloured, well printed with a good contrasting colour and you get a ton of them. The cards are beautifully printed standard card size (so they fit into sleeves and the sleeved cards fit into the tray, smart people).
The vac form tray with the PVC lid are fantastic in both design and execution. The lid is AWESOME and it works well. The time I heard the tray slide off the top of my duffel bag and all I heard was "bump" and not "CLATTERCLATTERCLATTER" as dice sprayed across the room I was hooked.
Game Play and Rules:
Very quick to learn from the rules. I recommend the expanded rulebook that is included with Quarmageddon which is also free for download in PDF by clicking here .
Learning to play takes about two minuets when someone teaches you. Do not think that it is not deep because it is simple. The number of combos available with creature and spell cards is huge. 10/10 for re playability factor.
This is not "Dominion with Dice". It is a dice collection building game with it's own excellent mechanics.
The mechanics I liked and the stuff I had seen before
Active, Ready, Spent and Used. The timing sequence is always followed.
Multiple variants of creatures on the cards using the same dice, brilliant!!
Two, three and four player games are equally fun.
Corrupt quiddity and creatures fit well into the base game (from the first expansion)
Only one new ability released in each expansion!!! (yay controlled growth)
Overall Impression:
I love this game. I warned you. It is very fast, fun and funny. 97/100!!!!
