Box size smaller than it ought to be for what's inside. (0 more)

Myself and my game group really enjoy this game. It's fast, simple, easy to learn and play, and looks really cool on the table. This game, for me, is on par if not slightly better than Onitama. Only issue I have is the specificity required to fit everything in the box. Which makes me wonder... If that's my biggest gripe with the game... The game must be pretty good. And it is.

An absolute blast

This game is an absolute blast for groups looking to learn more about each other and laugh. Pitting against each other and trying to guess when each other is lying is some of the most fun I've had at many parties I've brought it to. You can find it usually for about $15, and it's so easy many young children can play. The box I believe says 14+, but I've playing with 3-5 graders and they understood the game quickly and loved it.

Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Dirty War (Dirty Justice #2) in Books

Jan 20, 2019

fab read

This is the second book in this series by this author. Omg this book is just as good as the first one. I couldn't put this book down till I'd got to the end, then I was left wanting more. This book will grab you from the first page. This is a fast paced action packed read. This book has the perfect mixture of romance, suspense and mystery. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

Highly recommended series

I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book

Barry Newman (204 KP) rated American Horror Story - Season 9 in TV

Feb 4, 2020

Well the story isn't as deep as previous seasons and you certainly miss Evan Peters and Sarah Paulson from the cast but I am a sucker for an 80's slasher movie so still got allot of enjoyment out of this. I really liked the look and vibe of this season (the opening titles are brilliant) that captures the decade very well. Some of the plot twists are completely ridiculous but it rattles along at a fast pace and is never boring and made for a very entertaining season if not quite up with the series best.

charlieraven (21 KP) shared Amelia's Tea 's rating

Apr 23, 2020

I loved this game from the second it was announced because the concept really appealed to me. I wasnt disappointed. The honour of the conversation options left me chuckling to myself (especially if you choose a "dumb" charachter) and the storyline kept my interest. The combat was fairly simple and even on 'hard' it was manageable. I would go as far as to say that hard was equivalent to normal mode on most games.
Survival mode is practically insane but really good fun - apart from not being able to fast travel- walking is helped by choosing the speed boost on your perks though.

Great writing, from story, to characters, to lore. (1 more)

It's beautiful, and atmospheric with great music.

At time of playing (launch, before any updates) there's a few clunky things: like constantly drawing your weapon when you don't mean to. (1 more)

I had one instance where entering a room in the final mission kept completely crashing my game, and I had to parkour my way around to overcome this. Hopefully this is patched out soon!

Saved the Single Player

I loved this game. I imagine I'll be playing it for many years to come, and I'm hoping desperately for a sequel! I've been missing single player RPGs desperately lately, with studios like BioWare leaving them behind.

This game really scratched that itch for me. It's got great characters, great gameplay and a great story. It's just great. I can't recommend it enough.

Obviously it has some kinks to be worked out, but I was very easily able to overlook them when playing.
I am a little disappointed that some features were left out, like third person view and romances, but hope that these could be implemented into a sequel. Either way, I still enjoyed playing.
