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

Average.
Skinwalker Ranch is a very scary place. A bunch of scientists went to investigate it and what they witnessed was insane (go listen to Astonishing Legends if you want to know more). The movie takes that concept and turns it into an average silly horror film when in fact if they simply followed the story in the book of actually events you would be more scared, instead it's all a bit meh.

When Four Horror Icons Collide
House of the Long Shadows- is a excellent movie. It has four horror legends and icons in it. Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee and John Carradine. It mixes horror, suspense and comedy and it does a excellent job with it.

The plot: An American author finds a dilapidated Welsh manor perfect for writing until the residents host a bizarre family reunion.

Its a must see film.
