Peter Shephard (2822 KP) rated Lords of Waterdeep in Tabletop Games
Jul 12, 2019
For people with knowledge of Dungeons and Dragons, being able to play as one of the hidden Lords of Waterdeep feels very special; for those who know the Forgotten Realms well, it adds an extra level of depth (outside of the books and pages) to the City, and gives some inspiration for the sort of tasks the Lords may ask players.
The game itself is a worker placement, resource/recruit gathering, with a strong player vs Player element.
The core game is absolutely playable multiple times, and the add on (probably reviewed separately!) adds new rules and characters, but crucially is not an absolute must to get the full experience.

Kaaro works for S45 - not willingly though. In the past, he had used his abilities to steal from people, and he is almost blackmailed in to working for the government. He doesn't make it easy for them. He does what they want on his own terms, it seems.
I really liked this. I liked the world building, the science behind it all, the characters (Femi is one of my favourites - she is a woman who takes no nonsense!). I think it's a good start to a trilogy - I'm very interested to see where this goes!

<b>“They (people) need a way to feel powerful and important, and kindness can give them that feeling” (p.85). </b>
The Negativity Remedy is one book I think everyone needs to read, it shows real life and how we need to make little changes each day to spread kindness to others; it is one book I know I will read again just to keep the ideas fresh in my mind and in the minds of those around me. I highly recommend this book and give it 5 out of 5 stars.
