Blah – Elder Sign: Omens HD Review

Might be fun for fans of the boardgame. But not easy to learn, and taking away the tactile fun of rolling dice makes it less fun than it otherwise is. Also not an intuitive game to learn to win. Will require dozens of plays before strategies become apparent. More time than most will want to invest. I own dozens of FF board games and have played boardgames-to-apps I love like neroshima hex b/c the app is better, or at least as good/fun, as the original. This is not. Again, it will likely appeal to fans of the cooperative boardgame especially those who play solo. For me, a wasted 6 bucks. FF, an in-game tutorial would definitely be helpful to noobs. Videos and encyclopedic rules just don't do it. If I want something I must to study to learn, I will choose a boardgame with rules that are handy.
