I believe now they have a more eco friendly box out so component quality may have been changed. The version I picked up was the coffin box version. I sadly cannot comment on the overall game play but I have poked around with the components, watched this review of the game and can tell you the following: The game looked silly and campy AF and from what I could tell, it looked like it was a version of Betrayal but without the traitor book at the end. I saw this game at my FLGS when I had cash burning a hole in my pocket and picked it up. Games Workshop is my favorite company, and I love Talisman. I'm a huge fan of tons of luck, tons of random encounters, tons of dice, and messy, fiddly games that sprawl across multiple tables, can't stand most euros, and prefer older games, or games that feel older. I don't typically like what most people here do. I'm only hoping that they don't modernize Secrets of the Lost Station too much, but I'm all in on that.ĮDIT - you should probably take my praise with a mound of salt. It's a total throwback to the old school days of dungeon crawling. The guys at Shut Up & Sit Down and Heavy Cardboard would absolutely hate it. It really does feel like the complete opposite of what most people on r/boardgames like. It works as a solo experience, and is also super fun with up to 6. I've played it 10 times since getting it in February, and every single time is been one of the best times I've ever spent playing a board game. It's big, bold and exciting, it's kind of ugly, it's brash, messy, and a ton of fun. It has a ton of stuff to do, well-written adventures with non-combat encounters, exploration, tons of loot, monsters and just about everything I want in a good board game. It's a sweet, glorious mess of a game with more character than a dozen other games put together. It is the epitome of the Ameritrash experience. I've been playing hobby games since the mid'80s (and mainly only collect dungeon crawls and fantasy adventure games), and currently Secrets of the Lost Tomb is my all-time favorite game.
