The Witcher Adventure Game

Its a witcher board game! Awesome to play with your friends; and while I own the digital version, I think I will prefer the physical version of this: fun unlimited in your living room with friends or family.

As an avid board and video gamer I love the idea that this game represents. I just don't love the implementation. It has all the pretty shiny pieces and stacks of cards to be found in the typical ameritrash game. Each character is full of flavor and plays differently. Every turn you are presented with choices that feel meaningful, It is was the least bit interesting or engaging beyond the first turn it might have been really something special. There is just not enough interactivity. After several people in my group had experimented with the game, everyone decided to meet for a huge session. before long it developed into everyone taking 15-minute naps while we waited for our turns to arrive. The situation became even more depressing when we realized there was nothing to be gained by watching the other people take their turns. Finally, the webpage in the store does not list the need for gog galaxy nearly 2 full years later. While you can hotseat, online multiplayer required the client. So, it is not fully drm free. I would care more, but I am not playing this game anymore. If it was good, i'd want to always have the option of playing it after the servers and clients go cold. So I guess the fact that it is lackluster means that there will be less of an issue for anyone unable to play multiplayer years from now. Small victory?

When I played the previous Gwent I was waiting for this game a really long time, the Gwent before was not bad for me, but was not enough to suck me in, and this game shows me what was missing, alot of interaction and things to do, its really enjoyable, nice game, good voice acting, music and story. You can make dialogue choices and they count. The Gwent they have is kinda not so nice for me, I can't play it, cause I fall asleep when I tried it. But this game is really enjoyable, rpg card exploration game and you can encounter different things.

5 stars is a lot, I know but I think the Witcher Adventure Game deserves them. It's not without its flaws, of course, but I've spent enough time and so little money on it that I'm confident you won't regret purchasing it. I've enjoyed every minute of my 63 hours playtime. I love RPGs (Baldur's Gate & co.) and strategy games (HoMM), so this title is the perfect mix. The mechanics are pretty complex and it's really enjoyable because you get to improve. The fact that each hero has his particular playstyle really increases the replayability of the game and prevents any boredom. I really appreciate that the game runs flawlessly and that there's no imbalance. Luck actually plays a lot less role than what others may think. Especially if you're playing 5 quests games, each player will have his own share of good and bad luck. That's when your skills and your focus come into play. You need a good knowledge of the cards and what they could be to make a difference. Surprisingly, I've had a lot of very close games that I thought after a few turns would be unwinable because of bad draws. There are a few problems with online game disconnections, but nothing I'm sure GOG won't fix soon. Online play is the best part of this game. I can't count the times where I laughed my heart out with other players. Now I know some and we all joke about how Triss cheats with Teleport, how Dandelion has weird sexual tendencies and like to collect skulls, how Yarpen is only good with shields and how Geralt likes to bodguygard Dandelion. I've created a thread with some statistics on the related forum that may give you an hindsight on how interesting this game is. So, try it, add me as a friend and let's go kill that Striga together!

I tried the beta. It is a very boring game. It is a board game that over the internet does not make it at all. It takes a long time to wait for the opponents end up their moves and even when you act the game is unclear and confusing. In Italy the board game is called "risiko" is much more beautiful and clear of this version dedicated to the witcher. Personally I consider it one of the worst games ever made. Also taking part in the beta I expected the game as a gift. Personally, since I do not like it was a liberation. But surely if they had given to me I would have had time to change my mind. If you want a nice board game did well, with a considerable saving of money, take "monopoly". If you want a good game in general with € 9 you can catch it on gog galore here. Surely this is a game came out wrong. I do not understand why with the graphics engine Unity3d have not tried to make a version of the game for the mobile withcer instead of making a stupid table game.
