One is a skilled hunter, the eagle-eyed sniper who never misses a shot. The other is a fearsome werewolf, who is both a formidable villain and a literal party animal.

You've seen these two tangle in Battle for Greyport, our cooperative deckbuilding game, but now they're coming to the tavern to join the party as our 48th and 49th characters for The Red Dragon Inn.

Piper is a brilliant marksman who can hit any target with ease. She tends to work alone, but joins our heroes on occasion when that "long distance touch" is needed. Folks around the tavern know that her wit is as sharp as her arrows, so they have extra reason to stay on her good side!

The Good: Piper never misses a shot.
The Bad: This applies to drinking contests as well as archery.

Ripsnarl is always ready for a howling good time... when he's not in his scrawny human form. When he's a werewolf, he becomes a literal party animal. The rest of the time you'll find him fuming and plotting his revenge. He always finds ways to transform again, even when the moon wanes.

The Bad: Ripsnarl keeps his claws razor sharp.
The Worse: ... and Piper has the scars to prove it.

Tous ceux avec qui j'ai joué l'ont adoré!

Pour moi j'ai acheté les boitiers rouge et violet afin de jouer avec plus de personnes et ensuite j'ai acheté le coffret Deluxe pour l'offrir en cadeau.

Great game!

A great shedding game where you play poker hands and power cards.

Nightfall Lite but Not Nightfall 2.0

If you liked Nightfall, but thought individual creature combat was too tedious? You'll probably like this.

If you liked Nightfall but thought the game was too slow to ramp up, or too long to finish/hand out all wounds, you'll like this.

If you thought Nightfall's "Private Archive" claims ended to overpower the game based on luck of the draw, you'll like Unchained's 3x3 market grid.
-----
As far as deck builders go, I like Unchained. It will take awhile to really know the card power combos. The symbols look overwhelming at first, but are kind of intuitive once you're used to how the cards work. Combat is total offense vs total defense and result is one fatigue (wound). So no MTG-ish "creature 1 attacks player B and creature 2 takes 3 wounds against player C." It does speed up and simplify the game a lot. The 3x3 card market is brilliant. You can get cards you want and/or clear out cards you don't want your opponents to get. Much more variety of cards to cycle through than 8+2 archives = 10 cards to choose from per game.

Solid 4/5 all around. I'd give 5/5 if there was a happy medium in combat between Nightfall and Unchained. Not as super simplified as Unchained, but not like Nightfall's individual cards combat. Maybe a power on some cards "stays in play after combat" so there's a larger chance of different strategies than "I punch you, you punch me, repeat"
