Fun, but... (3/5) | May 3, 2010 | Katz | Pasadena Ca US |
| The "grossly overlong and complex strategy game based on a popular franchise" genre is too full already. It seems like it's meant to be played cooperatively, but some of the mechanics (one player choosing a monster for another player to fight) make it conducive to a lot of bitching and moaning. There are balance issues too (nobody else has much that can match Roy's Great Cleave). The cards are funny and there are a lot of jokes from the comic, but I feel like I would have had just as good a time just looking through the deck as actually playing. | ||||

A Round of Laughs (5/5) | Jun 16, 2010 | Jonathan | Auckland Ne |

I bought this game from my local gaming store because I saw it and knew I would love it as much as I love the comic. I've played it once, and have another group of my friends that really want to play it when we get the chance. I opened it up as soon as I got home and read the rules and the comic that come with it, and laughed my head off for a good couple of hours. After playing it once, I've also read through all the cards, and had myself laughing again. I love OOTS, and if they make an expansion for this game, or another one set somewhere else in the OOTS storyline, I would buy it without hesitation. |

really fun game (4/5) | Jul 6, 2010 | eric w | santa clarita ca US |

after purchasing this game and playing with my friends we enjoyed the results we achieved from it. the only problems were how instead of the cards being reprinted to the updated rules, there was a FAQ instead. although it did not affect the game play much. it did cause some headaches and arguing when fighting Xykon. overall it was well worth the price. as well hopefully an expansion |

| Pretty awesome game, takes a few minutes to get started but once you do it kicks some ass. | ||||

Fun, but just not the best. (3/5) | Aug 8, 2011 | Anonymous | |
| While the game is certainly fun, certain other d&d-inspired card games are simply better. The game tends to drag on and occasionally the system just breaks down. I hope the the expansion solves some of the issues, but I cannot in good faith give this game over 3 stars. Maybe 3 and a half. | ||||

Bad game (1/5) | Dec 24, 2011 | Anon | Minneapolis US |
| This game drags on and on and on. It's pretty funny because it's OOTS, but you should just read the comics for that kind of fun. The game itself is bad. | ||||
