  1. 1 out of 10

    The worst board game company ever. Received broken and missing pieces. Customer Support sent me to Ebay to rectify my problems. BUYER BEWARE. Do not buy anything from these scammers

  2. 8 out of 10

    So a thing I do is usually just put down an expansion or promo item as previously owned because I don't like the way it clutters my collection. I usually rate expansions the same as base game.

    The Sleeper is a powerful faction, specially with Tsathoggua in play, as the Lethargy ability can be a game changer, if left unchecked. Tsathoggua can also devoure monsters, denying combat benefits of several factions, specially that of the Crawling Chaos. Also, the ability pre-pre-battle of the Wizards (due to a spellbook) cast fear in the heart of others, as it can prevent battles or make one much harder than initially expected, as there is no way to take a wizard by surprise if the player still has power to spend (and the Sleeper can make this happen). There are others strong points, but it is better to play and discover. Overall, well balanced with the others and with a neat flavor of its own and true to the Mythos.

The Sleeper turns indolence into a virtue, as the greed-crazed God of Entropy, Tsathoggua, emerges from the depths to turn the world upside-down. The Sleeper can force enemy factions to make sacrifices to him, and he is able to capture and sacrifice enemy monsters. In addition he brings out ancient sorceries, with monsters that appear for free on-map, burrowing their way up from underground, arcane wizards who are able to teleport to an enemy player’s Faction Card and parasitize their special abilities, and the fearsome Formless Spawn.

The Formless Spawn, a signature monster, have battle strength equal to the number of them on the map. For instance, if you have all four Formless Spawn in play, each has a Combat of 4 (which is huge). He has other abilties such as Cursed Slumber, Lethargy, Death from Below, and Burrow, all of which let him do more with less, making him the most Power-efficient faction around.

In our playtesting, The Sleeper has proven to be one of the most popular factions to play. He doesn’t win any more often than any other faction, but man is he fun.
