PLAYED FOR YOU

Super Fantasy

Ugly Snouts Assault

Adventures in the dungeons - a new edition of a standard topic, light, rather quick and cute and offering several modes to play.

The adventurers choose a mission from the mission book, missions are sorted by difficulty level and the mission target goes for all players. Each mission is made up from an individual number of rounds which are spit into hero phase and monster phase. When the mission target is achieved within the number of rounds given for the mission, all players win together. In the hero phase heroes discuss who will do his turn when and have six action each to activate movement, door opening, bashing of a barrel, unlocking a chest, attack, defense, charging up and, finally, disarming a trap. The monster phase comprises four steps: Waking up the Sleeping rooms, New monsters come out, Moving and attacking, Clearing out the tokens

This all is supplemented by special powers for the heroes according to their own hero board - those powers must be activated by energy - and those magic items that can be found in the chests. Each hero can carry two items and wear 1 armor. From the small items that you find in the bashed barrels you can carry up to two in your backpack. In Arena scenarios heroes can also enter into direct confrontation for the mission targets.

This game is a new member of the international "dungeons are cool" movement, here we have again heroes vs. monsters - you use and do what you can and have and hope for the necessary smile of Lady Luc. Nothing special, but nice, cute drawings, funny texts, sometimes ostensibly so, you coud say business as usual for both heroes and monsters.
