Definitely not the best, neither the worst dungeon crawler out there. We've played through the whole campaign during COVID for more than 1 year. The plot barely pulls you in or you just simply forget what happened 5 city development stage before, we felt rather disconnected sometimes. The amount of gold and gear you get is ridiculous, you are forced to grind but even if you do have the gold, 95% of higher tier items are crap, you don't feel special at all (too situation heavy / one time use effects). Upgrading your cards require hundreds of gold and even the hardest scenario rewards + loot yield you around 50 if you are with a fast moving looter character. The slow movers are left out of the shopping party which is demotivating and frustrating. You can't freely trade loot between each other, why? I always felt an invisible barrier here which can be neglected by farming random scenarios - no, thank you. Quests are repetitve or some harder main quests require special setup, if you don't have you fail miserable. It happened quite a few times that either an enemy asspulled 2x DMG, or you failed to land a hit in crucial moments and you ended up dead, luck mitigation is non existent and frustrating.

This game is a beast. So far my group has only played 3 times, and we have loved every minute of it. The monster AI is actually good, and challenging, while not entirely over whelming. The art is great, the minis are amazing, and I love the legacy aspect of it (though instead of ripping up pieces, we made a R.I.P bag to put in cards that we were done with, and get the removable sticker set, so if we ever decide to play again or pass on the game, its all there). My only problem, after purchasing this beat of a game, I found that there was not room to properly store all the pieces in the box without just dumping them in and hoping I could find the pieces I needed within a reasonable time. So off to the bait and tackle section of Walmart to get some off brand Plano boxes. ( For those wondering, I Pretty much just followed this thread https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/1726878/yss-yet-another-storage-solution ) All in all, amazing game, and 100%
