    I've never played the original board game.

    In my first game I was a warrior. I used a sword and an axe at the same time. I learned a little magic. I killed a dragon. A wizard turned me into a toad. A druid stole all my stuff. A troll killed everyone of us. Very good game. If you like board games and movies like the Lord of the Rings, there is a good chance you will like this game.

    An extra tip: When you play against the computer, increase the speed of the AI to spend less time waiting for your turn.

    When you’re playing with three other people, session includes 1.5h of watching others make their moves. It’s not a problem when you’re sitting around the board of the original Talisman game, chatting and laughing, but it doesn’t work too well in a computer game. Otherwise it’s a great adaptation.

    As a game that endures precisely because of its easygoing, laughable nature, Talisman is far from ideal.

    Monopoly with monsters – what can be better than that? Well, turns out, pretty much everything else.
