This was an interesting book that ties in heavily to the Arthurian legends I have been reading all throughout this quarter. While I enjoyed it for the most part, it was quite slow in places. That being said, it was masterfully done. I loved all the allusions to the Arthurian romances, especially the introduction of Gawain and the ties into Beowulf throughout that scene. Ishiguro did an excellent job, it just wasn't fully my cup of tea.

So Much Sand in Space
A board game billing itself as a ‘sandbox’ is always going to be a little bit clunky, and Xia Legends of a Drift System is no exception. There are plenty of different systems for new players to learn and you will have to be patient when teaching the game. Xia Legend sof a Drift System isn’t particularly heavy, but there are many moving parts. A smarter person than me might have been able to figure out a way of sanding down Xia’s rough edges to make a more elegant experience, but I can’t honestly recommend better ways to implement its systems.

Ultimately, Xia’s dice rolling and the inherent meanness of blowing up your rivals and disrupting their turns, will be deal breakers for some. But if you invite people into your sandbox that won’t take themselves too seriously, there are plenty of toys to go around. I highly recommend you pick up Xia Legends of a Drift System.

Original Score: 4.4/5
