Sentinels of the Multiverse Review

Welcome fellow gamers and friends to another blog post about New perspectives. Today I am going to talk about a new board/card game I recently have fallen in love with. This cooperative game has you taking on the role of superheros and battling all sorts of evil villains. Sounds intriguing eh? Well take a look for yourself

First off, Thanks to Crits Happen and Greater than Games for bringing this game to my attention. This game is addictive and has quite a bit of replay value for such a simple product. Each of the heroes play differently than the last and even the mix of villains and environments never make the game seem like you have played before. Unlike many other deck building games, this game is about teaming up to take down a greater evil. All the players win or lose together. As such, it encourages fun table talk and planning to truly take down the villains newest schemes or stop an environmental hazard from ruining the heroes day.

The base game introduces 10 Heroes and their decks, 4 Villains and their decks, and 4 Environments and their decks. Each expansion introduces 2 new Heroes and their decks, 4 Villains and their decks, and 2 Environments and their decks. So far, Sentinels has the core game and two expansions: Rook City and Infernal Relics. They just recently funded Shattered Timelines, their third expansion, through Kickstarter and will be released in March of this year. With a steady schedule of releases and promos, this game promises to be one of the most highly re playable games for board and card gamers. So far, i have played the game 5 times and still have not seen all the cards from all 3 current products. Each game has been difficult and satisfying when you finally knock the villain down to size.

Sentinels is a highly rewarding experience for a card game and I strongly recommend you play or pick up a copy of it. I have my copy and have been encouraging new gamers to test it out. So need more convincing? Come hit me up and I will let you see one of the funnest experiences you might be missing out on from 2012.
