Board Game Geek Reviews


  1. 8 out of 10

    There are few games that recreate the Vengeance movie theme and this one has theme at every corner. The feeling of being able to cut through grunts like butter, and then healing and improving your character all add to the immersion of it all. It also has a great pace to it, as it slows during the montage phase and accelerates into the combat phase and then back again. Some of the component quality is not the greatest but all in all, it is a great game.

    Played at Essen 2017. OMG, It has been a long time since I have encountered something so completely senseless. The story behind the game doesn't make any sense at all and the gameplay is so completely random and boring. You spend the most of the game watching other players roll dice and hack some enemies. While they do that you can easily go grocery shopping. And in the end it doesn't even matter if you roll well or badly. In our group the player who rolled ridiculously good managed to clear all enemies from a whole gang, while I rolled utter crap, so I just walked past all the gang members to the boss and killed him (yeah right, let's leave this guy with his katanas who we tortured just some hours earlier and let him walk to our boss...) Of course this got me more points because my boss was more difficult and spawned more gang members. What??? This game is randomness combined with randomness and some luck on top. Material is nice though, so I give it a 2

    Yep - LOTS of FAKE reviews on here, some are the same accounts who also rated Post-Human, the designers other game 9 or 10, which has many 6 ratings due to lack of play-testing, something they "apparently" tried to correct here. Fake reviews are a HUGE OBVIOUS RED FLAG, and disturbing behaviour, I and many others will run the other way every-time. BGG are MORONS (sorry but it's just very frustrating, esp when it could be easily mostly quelled with a strict warning pop-up when someone rates games) for allowing this kind of activity for so many years already, and for games to be rated like this in the first place (Yes, I did it too lol, this is the point, why even allow it), will they ever learn, doesn't seem like it. Why they continue to allow people to rate games they have not played is really dumb (and not registering a rating for the overall game has predictably done NOTHING to alleviate this)

Description from the publisher:

Step into the shoes of a hero that has been bashed and tortured by one or more of the four gangs in the game. You win by building up your hero, scouting gang dens to find the baddies who wronged you, then taking bloody revenge through action-packed fight sequences made up of dice based puzzles.

Vengeance alternates between montage turns and fight turns. In montage turns, players heal and upgrade their heroes through new abilities and items. They also go out scouting gang dens to find the bosses who wronged them and take revenge on them in the fight turn.

The fight turn is the heart of the game. Players pick one of the scouted gang dens containing a boss who has wronged them and burst into the gang den to exact bloody revenge. Players gain VPs for killing the boss, clearing the den from all the minions or, for maximum points, both. Players have three turns to do this and get out of the den in one piece.

Fights are basically dice-based puzzles. In each round of the fight, players roll a set of dice and decide the order in which they play the rolled results. Upgrade skills and items allow players to swap die-results for others or string together a number of results to perform enemy-slapping combos. Upgrades thus work towards mitigating the luck of the die-roll, giving players more control over their Fight actions.

Players score points by killing bosses who wronged them, i.e., matching the figure on their vengeance card with one of the face down Boss cards attached to each den and/or by clearing all minions of a gang which matches the color of a vengeance card they have in play.

At the end of the game players also score bonus victory points through three mission cards in play.
