   Finally ended the main game and 2 expansion. The last one maybe other day. The quality components are great, simply rules... but the history is so lineal, doesn't mater you do, you have to explore every single place randomly in order to arrive at the end. The final bosses combats are so tedious. I had the expectation that the history turned in something really special, looking both sides of the heroes cards... but it do not.

   Playing through the campaign right now. The game seems to be doing exactly what I hoped it would do: it's an adventure game with a rulebook that is a tenth of the tedious length of, say, that of Sword & Sorcery (which I love as well!).

   CF KS with extra Dice set, Reset Pack and Metal Coins (+ Sand Worm expansion, Meema expansion and Sphinx expansion). Played 4 'episodes' now (the last one being very different but a good 'pallet cleanser' from which our characters came out a bit healthier) and we are having a lot of fun with it! The game is not hard to get into, weight I'd rate light to medium, production is good to very good. My only gripe is the legacy part. I do like legacy in games but here you really need that reset kit if you or someone else wants to play again. Luckily I have bought that add-on in the KS but it was KS exclusive and that is just mind boggling to me.... I know they have put out the files to print that reset kit but imho we should also be able to buy them.
