One of my favorite board games!

  • The game is never-ending (if you so choose). The cards are reshuffled and taken back in the game once they have been used
  • You can become all-mighty if you want to
  • Can have many different endings (options are up to the players)
  • Has lots of addons, giving new areas, cards, player characters, functions and endings
  • Has a rather cheap (base) game in Steam as well
  • Lots of stuff to remember what you can do, once you have spells and items and followers

Does the randomness come from the cards? Could you somehow pull cards from a certain pool to take away some extra randomness?

Also - the game length can be manipulated. Having a maximum turns or giving extra stats/items in the beginning etc. Creativism and experimentation can make the game more fun ๐Ÿ˜„
