After years spent in the pursuit of elemental power during which Ozrik caused a great deal of damage, he realized he had literally burned bridges behind him. Now he travels the world as an adventurer. He's still causing damage... only now he's doing it for the right reasons!

The Good: Ozrik's phenomenal control of the elements is useful versus undead, monstrous humanoids, and other evil dungeon dwellers.

The Bad: Side effects for Ozrik's companions may include spontaneous combustion, static discharge, and clammy hands.

The Red Dragon Inn: Allies - Ozrik expands the party at the Red Dragon Inn with a brand new elementalist, introducing a new elemental power mechanics that allow Ozrik to spend cards for bonus effects!

The Red Dragon Inn: Allies is a series of expansions for any standalone The Red Dragon Inn game. Each Allies set includes a single Character Deck, plus components to add a brand new character to your game.

Top notch

Probably the best coins I’ve ever seen for a game.

Way Better Than I Was Expecting

I was a bit on the fence when I saw semi-cooperative, but you have options for that. You can play the game in campaign mode or one-off mode, and from there you have the option of full competitive, semi-cooperative, or full co-operative.

I've only played Green Hill Zone so far, which hasn't been difficult, but I'd expect the later zones and the unlockables to be much tougher. Basically, you have 3 options for building a dice pool each turn, and then a few things at your disposal to mitigate bad rolls.

Without spoiling too much, this game can technically go up to 6 players, which I tried once. Played fine as it was, but made the robotniks a bit too easy, so I'll probably come up with a house rule to balance that one out.

Incredibly Worth It

This box has so much content in it for the price you pay. 25 scenarios, but actually a few more because there's sometimes an A and a B for scenarios, and each scenario can take 1-3 hours depending on your party. My only gripe is there's 6 heroes, but only up to 4 players for the scenario booklets. You can always try to house rule more in though.

Basically, it's a scenario-based skirmisher. Initiative bag decides who goes when, and you have some power over your foes because you know what action they are going to take and even have a little bit of say in how it carries out sometimes. But don't expect that to make this a walk in the park, because even on Veteran difficulty, we've had a few close calls throughout the campaign so far.

Great puzzle game! Works great solo too!

The Expansions Really Improve Bang

My first experience with the series was the Dice Game, followed by Samurai Sword. I'd say Samurai Sword is my favourite mechanically, but it only has one expansion, so it doesn't have the variety this Dynamite Box offers.

Bang is a decently old title, so the base game has its share of issues, but the expansions do a pretty good job of addressing those.

The heavy use of symbology (one of which isn't even on the reference cards), and the confusing rules behind the different coloured cards are issues that I plan to solve by printing my own reference cards. Highly recommend that at least one player is incredibly well-versed with the rules before playing with multiple expansions at once.
