  1. 4 out of 10

    I have no idea what I was doing when I was playing this game. Honestly, I don't think real-time games with a worker placement mechanic. If you're lost and you're playing against fast worker placement thinkers, you are going to be flattened. This isn't really a game for me.

  2. 7.4 out of 10

    Fun and exciting gameplay for sure! A couple comments: 1. the sand timers are too easy to knock over, at least for us. Its probably ok just a small annoyance. 2. The real time aspect works well, I like it in that you can play the game in 60 minutes or less pretty regularly even with 4 or 5 players 3. I originally thought bumping of the boards would be an issue but the coating seemed to minimize that issue. We had a few small bumps but not enough to wreck the game. 4. The council phase works well, I like the fact the votes determine your order of choice/player order and bonus. 5. You will probably move to the advanced playmats quickly as the game is easily solvable with the basic playmats.

    Pendulum is my favorite Stonemaier game with excellent gameplay! The only real time game where the sense of urgency cannot be described as "Stressful".

In Pendulum, each player is a powerful, unique noble vying to succeed the Timeless King as the true ruler of Dünya. Players command their workers, execute stratagems, and expand the provinces in their domain in real time to gain resources and move up the four victory tracks: power, prestige, popularity, and legendary achievement.

Players must use actual time as a resource in managing their strategy to best their opponents, using time on different action types and balancing it with time spent planning and analyzing. The winner will be the player who manages and invests their time most effectively and who builds the best engine, not the player who acts the quickest.

Pendulum is the highest-rated protoype in the history of the Stonemaier Games Design Day.
