The Order of the Stick Adventure Game (5/5) | Nov 16, 2009 | The Kate | Lawrence Ka US |

THIS GAME IS AWESOME. We got it, thinking "eh, this game could be so-so and we'd still love it because it's an adventure game for all our favorite characters." The characterizations of all the different characters is held true- Roy acts the hapless leader in his play cards, Elan the sweet simpleton.. But we loved it for not only it's characters, but the gameplay is truly great!! It has an RPG feel that compares to a D&D game.. collecting weapons and tricks "Schticks" and useful items "Loot" that truly aid or hinder your character appropriately! It is an enjoyable 3+ hour game, so be prepared to get lost in the sly loot tricks of Haley or the lazy, backstabbing evil of Belkar (my favorite). This game delivers true, fun action, even for non OOTS fans. I recommend it highly! |

So much fun! (5/5) | Dec 26, 2009 | Matt Newkirk | Saginaw Mi US |
| I've played some cooperative games like Arkham Horror and this one is even better! I love the hilarious shtick cards and the added tactics of figuring out whether to help or hinder your co-players is fantastic! | ||||

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. |

Fantastic Game! (5/5) | Oct 31, 2009 | Stephanie Voge | Omaha NE US |
| It took a little while to get the hang of this game, but once we figured out the mechanics, it was a blast! I ran this game at my local gaming convention in Omaha, NE (www.nuke-con.com) and it was a mega-success. I was forced to promise to bring it next year and run it more than once. I think the time estimates for how long a game takes are a little low, but other than that, this game is wildly original with hysterical flavor text. I also love that its a "new" game every time you play it. | ||||
