Call to Adventure: The Stormlight Archive

Call to Adventure: Stormlight is a captivating game for fans of the Stormlight Archive series, and even for those who haven't delved into the world of Roshar. As a standalone game, it comes with everything you need to embark on your own epic journey, and the artwork is stunning. I'm not a huge board gamer myself, but I found this one incredibly easy to pick up and enjoy, even with a complex strategy system. You build your character with a unique combination of abilities and traits, and the story unfolds as you overcome challenges and develop your skills. It's a game about more than just points, it's about creating a compelling narrative for your hero, which I found to be a really fun aspect.

Some reviews mention the game being complex, and I definitely found that to be the case, but it was a welcome challenge. If you're new to more complex strategy games, you might find yourself needing to look at some of the tutorials to get a better grasp of the rules. The reviews from fans of the Stormlight Archive series are unanimously positive, with many highlighting the beautiful artwork and the connections to the books. They feel like a great way to live out your favorite stories from the books.

Overall, Call to Adventure: Stormlight is a beautifully designed game that combines challenging strategy with an engaging story building element. If you're a fan of the books, it's a must-have, but even if you're not, this game is still a worthwhile experience. I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys hero-crafting games or strategic card games with a touch of storytelling. The art is incredible, and the gameplay is captivating, even if you aren't as familiar with the world of Brandon Sanderson.
