Resident Evil Resident Evil Deck Building Game

Esta algo caro pero si eres fan de la saga y te gusta coleccionar es la unica forma de encontrar el juego base

First of all, I'd like to mention that this is not a card game like Magic, Yugioh, etc. This is a deck building game. They are not the same. Card games involves players that have preconfigured decks. In the deck building genre, you build your deck as you play. Every player has an opportunity to gain a card that is in the pool. My experience with deck building games only involves Dominion and all of its expansion except for Seaside, so my review is based on my experiences with Dominion and Resident Evil. After playing Dominion, I felt that there was something missing. Winning a game in Dominion is fairly easy (get money, buy points). After researching for quite some time, I passed up on getting Thunderstone (because the minions are known before you attack) and I also passed up on Ascension (because the pool of cards are limited). Resident Evil was the game I've been waiting for, and everyone who have had a chance to enjoy it with me, will say the same about it. What I like about Resident Evil, the Deck Building Game, is that in order to win, you have to take risks. The zombies are in the mansion, but you don't know what or who it is unless you "explore". Special items in the mansion, also makes taking risks, much more exciting. Furthermore, the different characters allows for a lot of unique game play. To win the game, you have to build your deck around your character (this is the most fun). What I don't like about the game is the lack of action cards. Because there are 3 types of game play, the number of action cards are very limited for any one type of game. The cards, as others have mentioned, are warped and not of very high quality, but the game is pretty cheap to replace if needed. And finally, as others have mentioned, the instruction book is poorly written and very lacking. Be sure to join the board game forums and the official RE Deck Building Game forum so that you can your questions answered, because you will have some. Overall, I would highly recommend this game. Every time this game comes out of the box, it's a guarantee 4-6 hours of game play. Sure there are some flaws with the game, but despite that, it is, in my opinion, the best deck building game. I'm glad I didn't spend money getting the other DBGs out there.

This is the first deck building game I've played, and I must say I enjoyed it. It's very easy to learn (if you have any problems there are lots of tutorial videos on youtube) and, unlike some trading card games, it actually takes a fair amount of time to play. Usually when I play the game with my husband, the matches will last around 45 minutes. You can also play the game solo, which I've done once, but the game lasts longer that way, around an hour. It is skill based and depending on which character you play as, you must adapt and change your strategy, and no two games are the same. In my solo game I didn't face the boss monster until I had almost fully explored the mansion, while there were some games played with my husband where he was one of the first monsters we fought. It has high replay value and, when used correctly, each character has their own charms and most are very well equipped to fight anything the game can throw at you just as long as you think logically about how to put together your deck. I would recommend this game to fans of the games who also happen to be a fan of trading card games. It is a good way to pass time if you're bored, or if you want to have some fun with friends. The booklet says 4 people can play, but with expansions you could probably play with more than that. Highly recommended.

Purchased on a whim cuz i like the game it was ok

I first played this game with my ex boyfriend and loved it so much I had to buy a copy of it for myself when we broke, now I'm too good at it so no one will play it with me anymore! that being said this game is highly addicting and super fun to play. and expansion packs keep the game versatile and interesting. We would play the Day Killer sometimes and combine the monster decks from one of the expansions making it so you have to kill two bosses instead of just the one. I like the different modes and its fun that you have a goal to reach. The box is high quality but the plastic insert in the box doesn't really fit the cards. I put all my cards in card protectors so they wouldn't have fit anyway. The cards are great and super easy to shuffle and feel high quality and heavy duty as well. The rules are easy to understand and look up when there are disputes, and its fun that you play as your favorite RE characters too! I Have played a lot of DBGs and this by far my favorite one!

As a fan of the Resident Evil franchise, I toyed with the idea of buying this game, and then a friend introduced me to the concept of deckbuilding games with a similar game. That was it, I knew I had to buy this game. After reading through the rules and having a few trial and error games with friends, I can safely say that we now know how to play and it is a lot simpler than one would first imagine, as some card games can be quite daunting. This game definitely has all of the elements from the Resident Evil games, and has a lot of little easter eggs for true fans hidden within its flavour texts and card names. Definitely a game to try, and the expansions really do bring a lot more to this game also.

After owning this game for some time now i have come to the realization that i love it. For the first few weeks of owning the game i played it almost everyday sometimes on my own and many times with others. The game is well balanced and great fun. The only downside to the game is how easily it can be moved into one players favour. Expansions for the game will help get rid of this problem.

had great fun playing this with my girlfriend and some buddies. it's got some basic games to get you started and a few more advanced scenarios once you start to get used to it

I have had hours of fun playing as a family with my husband and sons. Thoroughly enjoy playing this. Great

Me and my son play quite regularly, no 2 games are alike, really well thought out and designed. get it!
