Fun game that impressed us, though some simple things would have made it better: 1. Color tokens/cards to show player colors once all 5 warriors are deployed. 2. Warrior art doesn't match minis, which makes it hard to match yourself and others. Even with these drawbacks it was a lot of fun. (Based on 1 play, it was fun for those losing--the other 3--as well as for me. I won with melee team, killing 3 and getting 2 jewels.)

Best Skirmish in years. We had a Blast. Easy to learn, hard to master, faster, funnier, engaging and most of all smarter than all its contenders.

The clean rules, quick play time and start of the game are the game's strongest assets--and those keep the game from being rated lower. There are some nice moments when a player interrupts and goes for a kill, especially if that player reveals a hidden character. Once everyone is revealed, the game lacks surprises and loses much of its charm. Further, combat is unexciting and lacks punch. The hand management should bring an interesting wrinkle to the game, but it just feels a bit constraining in practice. The asymmetry of the factions is, at best, bland. Overall, Wildlands decidedly lacks the "wild" part.
