Kids Say:

“A good strategy game that encourages thinking in advance. I wish there was more to it than fighting monsters. It was fun to play, but I don’t understand all the hype.”

Adults Say:

“Grown-ups agree: Gloomhaven is the best board game ever made. A cooperative game that offers the chance to master a character’s unique abilities and work on both short-term and long-term goals. Just when you start to get sick of a character, you are forced to retire it, break the seal on a new box, and start with a brand-new character with an entirely different game play. It has nearly unlimited replay value. We played it weekly for over a year. "

"The mechanism of playing the top action of one card and the bottom of the other card is ingenious. There is an underlying story, but it is not really what drives the game. The only real downside is the number of pieces. Set up and clean up are a nightmare.”
